Gael Monfils: A Pro Tennis Player on the Court and a Trader on eToro

You don’t need to be a professional trader to become one on eToro, but you can be a professional athlete. eToro is proud to announce a collaboration with French tennis player Gael Monfils, who is known for his colorful personality and showmanship both on and off the tennis court. Gael first joined eToro in October 2017, after his brother-in-law told him about the platform. Gael says he was drawn to eToro’s cryptocurrency offering and its CopyFund investment strategies. You can check out his portfolio here.

Being a professional tennis player is immensely challenging. It takes talent, hard work, dedication, and the ability to recover from failure. In that way, online trading is similar to professional sports.

Gael has achieved some incredible feats throughout his career. He was named ATP Newcomer of the Year in 2005, won 7 ATP World Tour singles titles and was ranked 6th best player in the world in 2016. Over the years he has reached numerous final matches in reputable tournaments and competed in many Grand Slam tournaments. He will be playing in both the 2018 French Open next week and the upcoming US Open this summer – “bonne chance” Gael! The fact that he has such an impressive career, while still keeping a smile on his face and having fun, makes him a perfect fit for eToro.

eToro has been at the forefront of Fintech for more than 10 years, establishing itself as an innovative brand, which appeals both to veteran traders and young newcomers who want to take control of their financial future. A main goal of ours is to constantly be ahead of the pack and continuously introduce new and exciting features that will give our clients real value. We believe Gael embodies many of our values and we’re proud he is part of our online trading community.
