Thanks to Gaël MonfilsThe France team tennis starts its first positive turn Davis Cup against Germany, in Toulon. Monfils gave on Friday, the first point to beat France Philipp Kohlschreiber into three sets: 6-1, 6-4, 7-6. Jo-Wilfried Tsonga had to face Benjamin Becker in the second singles in the late afternoon.Monfils has dominated its opponents in power from the baseline. Very legs, the Parisian has done much harm to his opponent to serve (15 aces) and forehand (13 winners). It has also been effective in defense, not hesitating to dive to get the bullets from the German. This is the first Davis Cup match won by 15e Global, whose previous experience had resulted in a crushing defeat last year in the dam in the Netherlands, facing 122e world. "It was my second game and I'm glad I won. So I was rehashed so!", Responded the Parisien, a little tired of being reminded that defeat against Thiemo De Bakker in Maastricht. "It's not as if I had lost twenty before"Said Monfils.The French had two difficult passes in the second set when he was leading 3 to 0, then in the third when Kohlschreiber débreaké to pick at 4-4. But he was released each time without panic. "It's a great victory. I had a solid game. I really wanted to bring this first point"Said Monfils leaving the court. "I am happy to have made the point that launches the story that will perhaps write this year. This is a first round and hopefully I will have the opportunity to give more important "Has he explained.
