. As an athlete , he knows what effect that seeing his words or actions interpreted differently: "This is the news that shocked me more than anything , it is really bad . That it is not a critical problem is the sport, but then to accept the deal in detail without being 100% sure , it's shocking , " Judge says , referring to the revelations he made about the case Anelka Africa South . "That fact that our image is a bit dirty. I do not know exactly what is happening there , but that it is a tragedy like this, the press must play a role ". Is tarnished image that is the problem or the facts? It must indeed distinguish intimacy , privacy and public life , and sport is perhaps the least prepared for it in comparison with the actor , the entrepreneur or the politician .
. As an athlete may be subjected to a similar fate, and perhaps as a friend , former semi-finalist at Roland Garros is what happens to relativize Blues "I will not say it's great what they do but I do not blame them . Maybe that 99.9 % of people think they are ashamed to jersey but I think the guys are all men before and it's not easy for them" . It's not easy to take mistakes in public, it's true . This is not a reason to think only of yourself . The pressure is extremely high for a player to very high level . And He is trained to endure .
The ground truth is not enough:
. As a professional , he wants to defend particular conception of the " locker room -sanctuary ": he believes that "everything that happens in the locker room should stay in the locker room " because "there are things the public does not know" . And therein lies the greatest paradox that does not seem to perceive Monfils and players of the France team : The ground truth is not enough.
en the sport was amateur , his influence - and his salary - was limited. Today , the professionalization implies also ( and most difficult one asks that all athletes , the best among them to maximize their individual performance and career) to do with so- called " The truth of public space . More volatile than most players realize. This part of the job , as can also look to sign contracts with sponsors or advertisers. Moreover , when one is a federation.
In the locker room, you can keep secret tactics , experience moments that no one can really grasp . Can we stifle what makes any group or individual human experience : conflict and division without distorting the sport and the game ? The sport can not be classified " Top Secret ", even when it generates an industry . How can a player really know what to hide when he will exhibit involuntary doubts and certainties on game day ? Is a learning process. It seems he objective Federations French train both individuals and athletes . Still, the highest level is an experience which often eludes trainers . That of self-transcendence . This is where the confusion sets in : Can I become a professional self-transcendence in his corner? We can see that everyone is often requisitioned for the greatest achievements . Family , friends , trainers ... And even the press! ;)
. As a fan , Monfils will always believe in the possibility of the Blues , and found there the competitor , even the amateur : "Je stand before a TV somewhere , with the flag behind them thoroughly , I hope they will make us dream . Nothing is impossible, I think .
" It's always easy to criticize, but do not forget we can still be qualified and what is she going to say the press ? " he started as a pirouette to interlocutors with whom he can play hide and seek . We may reply : it will continue to do its job, Gael ! At worst it by denigrating the idols have helped to build. At best , examining short , land and interests that often transcend mere sporting glory.
