Finally, a quick jaunt down the All\u00e9e Marcel-Bernard took us past the iconic statue of Suzanne Lenglen and into the fabled stadium, home to so many classic moments since it was constructed in 1994.\u00a0<\/p>\n
And there was 39-year-old Monfils, closing his practice session with a marathon rally with an awestruck nine-year-old girl. The crowd chanted her name and cheered for one of the longest rallies in Roland-Garros history (no joke, Monfils, ever gracious, made sure of it). In the end she took two of three from Lamonf, and hit ten balls into the crowd like a true champ.\u00a0<\/p>\n
A moment she\u2019ll never forget. A day of unforgettable moments, with family, friends and fellow enthusiasts.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The best part? All profits from the day will be donated to fund social and environmental tennis-related initiatives.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Finally, a quick jaunt down the All\u00e9e Marcel-Bernard took us past the iconic statue of Suzanne Lenglen and…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":661539,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[72],"tags":[99,428],"class_list":["post-661538","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tennis","tag-sports","tag-tennis"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/661538","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=661538"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/661538\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/661539"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=661538"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=661538"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=661538"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
