French tennis player Gael Monfils has revealed that the only thing he wants to remember from last year is his marriage with Elina Svitolina. The World No. 21 said that it was tough for him to play during the pandemic. 

The tennis couple got married in Geneva last July after  Monfils and Svitolina started dating in 2018. However, in February 2021, the couple announced that they have parted ways. And a month later, surprisingly, the couple got engaged. “I was undermined. When I tried to come back, it was very complicated. There was no audience. I had no energy, did not want to play in these conditions. It was very hard for me. This moment, I lived it badly, personally and professionally. The only positive thing I take away from 2021 is my marriage.
