Gael Monfils pulled off a straight sets upset of David Nalbandian, winning 6-3, 6-4, 6-2. The Frenchman looked superb, and will play the winner of tonight's match between fellow Americans James Blake and Mardy Fish.
As for the little Salsa dance he did after he won match point -- playing to the crowd before he greeted Nalbandian at the net -- it could have probably waited. Most activity before players reach their opponent is unsportsmanlike and has no place in the game.
Then again, this is the Open.
