Gael Monfils has admitted his relief at making it through to the second round of the Monte Carlo Masters.
The Frenchman had to come from behind to beat Andrey Kuznetsov in the opening round on Tuesday.
"I never had much success here in Monte Carlo, so I'm very pleased that I was able to get through this match," the 28-year-old told the ATP's official website.
"Right now I have mixed feelings. There were good parts in the game, but also bad ones, certainly due partly to Kuznetsov, who was playing well. But I was able to come back. Once I was a bit more confident, I was able to move better, too."
Monfils will take on Alexandr Dolgopolov in the next round of the tournament.
