French tennis pro dies at 24

French tennis player Mathieu Moncourt passed away yesterday at the age of 24.

Moncourt was discovered by his girlfriend at the bottom of the stairwell in his Paris apartment. By the time paramedics arrived on the scene, Montcourt had already passed.

His cause of death has yet to be named by authorities.
The Parisian tennis star had found himself in a world of trouble back in May when he was banned from the French Tennis Federation for five weeks for betting on tennis matches. Montcourt was also fined $12,000.
