Elina Svitolina and Gael Monfils are the new “top” tennis couple. The Ukrainian and the Frenchman are inseparable and they have even opened a shared Instagram account dedicated to their relationship.
Elina has just reached the quarters after playing a fantastic match against Madison Keys to win 6-2 1-6 6-1. Monfils was in the player’s box giving his full support and Elina didn’t miss the chance to dedicate the win to her boyfriend.
After the match, when leaving the ritual autograph on the camera, Elina referred to g.e.m.s. that is the “trademark” of their relationship (Gael, Elina, Monfils, Svitolina).
Svitolina will face either Naomi Osaka or Anastasija Sevastova for a place in the AO semifinal. You can bet that Gael Monfils will be there to support his girlfriend.
That stands for Gael Elina Monfils Svitolina.
Guess that confirms it then. #AusOpen #GEMS pic.twitter.com/wa0ihO0KcC
