The eldest daughter of one of the most famous couples in the world of tennis was born this night. Elina Svitolina and Gael Monfils, away from the playing courts for various reasons, have announced the birth of little Skaï on their social accounts.
"What a night! Ladies and gentlemen, please give a warm welcome to Skaï Monfils. I cannot thank my husband enough for having this unforgettable moment by my side," wrote the Ukrainian player.
Medvedev also becomes a father
Exciting post published on Instagram by Monfils: "I spent the most incredible night of my life, which ended with the best gift around 6 am.
Elina was strong and brave. I cannot thank my wife and God enough for this very special moment. Welcome to the world, my little princess Skaï." The Frenchman had to give up the ATP 250 tournament in Naples due to a physical problem and may have finished his season prematurely.
A few hours later, Daniil Medvedev also communicated to his fans that he had become a father.
The Russian tennis player posted a photo of his little girl showing the breathtaking view of Nice. "14.10.2022. Welcome to the world, little one," wrote Medvedev. The former world number one is stopped in the pits due to a muscle problem that prevented him from finishing the match against Novak Djokovic in Astana.
The Russian, after losing the tie-break in the second set, suddenly raised the white flag and explained to the Serbian the reasons for choosing him.
Djokovic then clearly defeated Stefanos Tsitsipas in the final and won his ninetieth career tournament in the ATP Tour. Medvedev is one step away from qualifying for the ATP Finals in Turin, but everything will depend on his physical condition.
The date on which he will return to the field or if his season can continue in the coming weeks has not yet been established. Financial World staff wish to Elina Svitolina, Gael Monfils, Daniil Medvedev, their children and their families the best!
