The term "point of intersection" never showed up in the original post.

The original question asks, "is there a time at which he crosses the same spot?"

Or using math symbols, if you use x(t) to denote his position as a function of time on Monday, and y(t) to denote his position on Tuesday, then the problem can be restated as,
"is there a time T for which x(T)=y(T)?"
