Since 1990, no French male tennis player had achieved what Gael Monfils has done this morning at the ATP 500 in Acapulco. With his victory over Damir Dzhumur in the first round of the tournament, Gael becomes the oldest player since Nicolas Mahut to secure a professional win on the tour. The record now stands at 39 years and 176 days, surpassing Mahut’s mark of 39 years and 15 days. We will see how 2026 unfolds because it seems that Gael might continue breaking his own record. A standing ovation for a man who has been winning at least one official match in each of the past 23 consecutive seasons.<\/p>\n
