Gael Monfils and Elina Svitolina used to date for long until they released a public statement about the decision to split. However, as per their words, they remained in great teams, parting ways as good friends. However, it seems more and more plausible that there is something more than sheer friendship at least from Gael’s side.
The world no.14 posted a lovely picture of him cheering for Svitolina when the Ukrainian beauty was playing at the Miami Open against Anastasija Sevastova. Love is probably still in the air.
