Trademark Wawrinka! 🤩 @stanwawrinka @MoselleOpen
Stan Wawrinka finally discovered some proper form as the Swiss player won his 3rd match in Metz after pushing through the qualifiers.
It was only a round one match for Wawrinka but a very important win against a solid player like Sousa. The Swiss already won two matches earlier this week as part of the qualifiers and now will get a chance to test himself against Medvedev.
It should be a great match and a challenge that Wawrinka will embrace as he enjoys tennis after not being able to play over a year. It was a solid match and typical to indoor conditions, the first set went to a tiebreak. Both players were quite strong behind their serve dropping only a handful of points.
Wawrinka had the lower percentage of his first serve and he allowed a break point in the match but saved it. The tiebreak was won easily by Wawrinka 7-1. The second set featured more strong play from him as he eased into a 6-2 second set win to book the straight sets victory.
