Farewell to Shanghai?

Gael Monfils (18th) defeated for the second time in five days Fernando González (10th), this time for 6-3 and 6-4 in the second round of the Master's degrees Series of Madrid. This way, the option of the Chilean to come to Shanghai was complicated too much.

A bad beginning was enough so that French was doing the minimal difference from a beginning to administer it and one more set was winning the Chilean, now compromising seriously his options to come to Shanghai.

Rupture in the second game, with the enormous double help of lacking two in the Chilean, they were enough so that Monfils was closing the set for 6-3. But the hope is based that in the third game the Chilean changed a bandage into his foot, moment from which his perfomance improved greatly.

But in the beginning of the second set, any hope was diluted immediately. It transferred his entry service once again and before the numbers of the Gaul at the time of serving difficult age to think of recovering it.

Although it had his possibility in the seventh game, when Monfils erró and the Chilean did not make use of a break point where it could kill with his inverted right outstanding figure, French ended up by closing the party with an exact one 6-4.

This way, the Chilean stops harvesting points in one of two big tournaments that he had left and the possibility of coming to the Master's degrees as starter is improbable.
