[2] Benchetrit made his Grand Slam main-draw debut at the 2018 French Open, after receiving a wildcard to the singles main draw. [3] He was defeated by fellow Frenchman Ga\u00ebl Monfils in four sets in the first round. The following year at the 2019 French Open he also received wildcards in both singles and doubles and won his first round matches in both events.

Upon being handed the banana, Benchetrit told the ball girl \u201cI can’t do it,\u201d indicating that he himself was unable to peel the banana due to his fingers being “heavily taped” due to blisters (or “heavily bandaged” as some outlets reported), and him having put cream on his hands in order not to sweat, and requested that she peel it for him. [4] [5] [6] The chair umpire intervened, ordering Benchetrit to peel the banana himself, and, according to Benchetrit, telling him that the ball girl “was not his slave.” [7] [6] Benchetrit went on to defeat his opponent and qualify for the main tournament, where he lost in the first round. [8] The incident triggered debate on social media and within the ranks of tennis about the role of ball girls and ball boys. [9] Benchetrit later expressed his disbelief at the umpire’s statement to him, and the social media response “without people knowing what really happened”. [6] Personal life [ edit ] He was born in Nice, France, and lives in Morocco. [ten] Benchetrit is of Moroccan descent through his father.
