Tennis-French number one Monfils out of Davis Cup semi-final

Sept 14 (Reuters) - World number eight Gael Monfils has been ruled out of France's Davis Cup semi-final against Croatia in Zadar because of a knee injury, the French tennis federation said on Wednesday. The U.S. Open semi-finalist is replaced by Richard Gasquet, who will play in Friday's singles along with Lucas Pouille. France were already without the injured Jo-Wilfried Tsonga. Britain host Argentina in the other semi-final. (Reporting by Julien Pretot; Editing by Ken Ferris)
