Gael Monfils’ sister Maelie Monfils also has dabbled in the world of tennis like her professional tennis player brother. 

The French professional Gael Monfils (full name: Gaël Sébastien Monfils) has won the ATP Tour Singles eleven times and finished runner-up 22 times. 

His highest ranking in the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) was sixth, which he reached in 2016.

Monfils made his tennis debut in 2004, but it wasn’t until the 2008 French Open that he got his breakthrough.

Moreover, he has been called a “walking highlight reel” for his amazing trick shots and entertaining antics.

Along with becoming famous, Gael has also amassed a considerable sum of money. The professional tennis player is estimated to be worth about $10 million.

Additionally, he has been endorsed by companies such as Asics, Wilson, and Rokit.

He also holds the record for the quickest forehand, hitting an incredible forehand at 124 mph during the Indian Wells Masters.

Gael Monfils Sister

Gael Monfils’ younger sister Maelie Monfils has joined her brother in the tennis scene. She was born in 2005, albeit her exact date of birth is unknown.

With Maelie’s recent rise to fame, the media and paps will have plenty of opportunities to learn about her private life.

She has participated in 4 Junior’s Singles and currently ranks 136 in the ITF Junior Rankings.

Moreover, she made her debut in one of the matches in 2019 and unfortunately lost 6-1, 6-3 to Hungarian Amarissa KiaraToth.

Monfils also receives training at one of the most respected institutions in the world, the International Management Group Academy.

At the age of 13, Monfils won her maiden championship. Subsequently, she went on to win two more in the following years.

Maelie once said that when people learn that Gael is her brother, their perspectives shift.

The 0-year-old finds that annoying, but her brother and sister frequently speak on the phone, and the famous tennis player constantly helps her younger sister.

Passion For Tennis

Since a young age, Maelie has learned how to set up her game, particularly how to finish the points.

Furthermore, her family and famous brother Gael are always present in her games. 

The young tennis player is able to handle the Monfils’ name and reportedly told in the tournament: 

Gael is Gael, Maelie is Maelie

Maelie Monfils, like her brother Gael Monfils, also received an invitation to compete in the junior Roland-Garros event for the first time in 2021.

Moreover, she aspired to emulate Gael’s victory, but she was unable to do so. 

Additionally, on June 7, 2021, she competed on day 9 at Roland-Garros Stadium in Paris, France. In her opening game, the French player faced Polina Iatcenko of Russia.

Besides, she is a fan of the renowned former tennis player Roger Federer, given that she must aspire to reach the levels of her idol.
