Childhood and youth

Stan Wawrinka grew up with his brother Jonathan and his two sisters Djanaée and Naélla on a farm in Saint-Barthélemy in the canton of Vaud , to which a home for the disabled is attached. His grandfather, who immigrated to Switzerland from Germany, was an organic farmer . His father Wolfram Wawrinka, a former farmer himself, and his mother Isabelle Wawrinka both work for the home for the disabled. Stanislas attended the Rudolf Steiner School in Crissier, about 12 km away .

Wawrinka and his three year older brother Jonathan got into tennis through friends of their parents from Alsace , whose sons Dimitri and Gregory Zavialoff spent their summer holidays at the Wawrinka farm and hit balls on the tennis court. Dimitri Zavialoff later became Wawrinka's coach for 15 years.

Wawrinka began playing tennis at the Echallens tennis club. Since Dimitri Zavialoff had just finished his training as a tennis instructor, he was hired by Wawrinka's parents. He became Wawrinka's coach and completed three winter training camps with him in Barcelona, ​​in which he was supposed to prepare him for professional tennis. At the age of 16, Wawrinka took part in the European Championships, where he reached the semi-finals.

Return to the top ten and first Grand Slam semi-final (2013)

Stan Wawrinka at Wimbledon in 2013

Wawrinka played his best season so far in 2013. He played his first tournament in Chennai , where he was eliminated in the quarter-finals in singles, but was able to win the tournament in doubles alongside Benoît Paire . At the following Australian Open , he met number 1, Novak Đoković, in the round of 16. After clearly winning the opening set and a break advantage in the second, Đoković won sets two and three before Wawrinka was able to equalize 2-2 after sets. After five hours and two minutes of play, Đoković prevailed with 12:10 in the fifth set. Wawrinka himself spoke of the best game of his career so far after his defeat. Especially mentally, he was very strong. He always remained calm and worked out chance after chance, even if it wasn't enough for victory in the end. After a three-week break, Wawrinka went to Buenos Aires, where he played his way to the final in the Copa Claro , where he was defeated by top seed David Ferrer in three sets.

With his victory in the round of 16 against Andy Murray at the Monte-Carlo Rolex Masters , he secured his compatriot Roger Federer second position in the world rankings.

Nevertheless, he decided to compete and was placed in 9th position. After victories over Thiemo de Bakker , Horacio Zeballos and Jerzy Janowicz , he met Richard Gasquet in the round of 16 , whom he defeated despite a 2-0 set deficit.

Stan Wawrinka at the 2013 US Open

In 's-Hertogenbosch , Wawrinka took part in the Topshelf Open to prepare for the third Grand Slam tournament of the year at Wimbledon. Seeded at number two, he played his way into his fourth final of the year and went into the game as the clear favorite. However, he lost clearly in two sets against qualifier Nicolas Mahut . At Wimbledon, Wawrinka was eliminated in the first round, as in the previous year.

Thanks to a surprisingly clear victory in the quarter-finals against Andy Murray at the US Open , Wawrinka reached the semifinals of a Grand Slam tournament for the first time in his career, in which he met world number one Novak Đoković. After winning the first set 6-2, he lost the second set in the tie-break, but then decided the third set back in his favor. Then Đoković decided the following two sentences for himself.

Despite the early elimination at the China Open , he reached 8th place on October 7, a new record in the world rankings. In the fight for participation in the ATP World Tour Finals 2013 , Wawrinka profited from the first round defeat of his direct opponent Richard Gasquet, who was only 20 points behind him before the tournament, at the Masters tournament in Shanghai . Wawrinka, however, moved into the quarter-finals, where he lost again without winning a set against Nadal, although he could not use three set balls in the first set. Since Tsonga reached the semi-finals at the Shanghai Masters, Wawrinka fell back to position 9 in the world rankings, but overtook Roger Federer for the first time in the “Race to London ranking”. As in the previous year, he failed in the first round in Basel .

On October 31, 2013 Wawrinka qualified for the first time in his career for the ATP World Tour Finals , when he won his round of 16 game against Nicolás Almagro at the Paris Masters and later his opponent Milos Raonic lost his game. In the group stage he met the world number one Nadal, his Spanish compatriot David Ferrer and Tomáš Berdych. While he was left behind again against Nadal, he was able to defeat his two other group opponents in three sets each and thus move into the semifinals on his first participation. Here he met Novak Đoković again, to whom he had to admit defeat in two sets. He finished the year at position 8 in the world rankings.

Victory at the Australian Open and first Masters title (2014)

Australian Open winners Stan Wawrinka and Li Na

In November 2013, Wawrinka announced that he would extend and intensify the collaboration with his trainer Magnus Norman . Norman decided to accompany the Swiss more often in his tournaments in the future. Wawrinka won the tournament in Chennai when he participated in his first tournament in the new year . With a two-set win over Édouard Roger-Vasselin , he won a tournament for the second time for the first time, after winning the title there in 2011, back then in the final against Xavier Malisse .

At Wimbledon , although he was number 3 in the world rankings at that time, he was only placed in position 5 and thus met Roger Federer, who was placed in position 4, in the quarter-finals. Despite winning the first set, he lost the game in four sets, but still achieved his best result so far at Wimbledon.

Due to the injury-related cancellation of Nadal for the Masters tournaments in Toronto and Cincinnati , Wawrinka was placed in third place at these tournaments. In Toronto, however, he failed in the second round to Kevin Anderson and in Cincinnati in the quarter-finals to Julien Benneteau .

Victory at the French Open (2015)

At Wimbledon he survived the first four rounds in three sets and thus reached the quarter-finals for the second time in a row, where he met Richard Gasquet. After losing the first set, he won the next two sets before losing the fourth again. In the fifth, Wawrinka was already 3: 5 behind and was two points away from defeat, but managed a rebreak. Gasquet didn't make the decision until the score was 9:10, and he won the match in five sets.

At the US Open he reached the semi-finals for the second time after 2013, which he clearly lost against Roger Federer with 4: 6, 3: 6 and 1: 6.

He went on to Marseille (quarter-finals) in February and the 500 tournament in Dubai , which he was the second Swiss player to win after the tournament's record winner Roger Federer (7). He played the final against Marcos Baghdatis .

Wawrinka at the French Open

From March to mid-May, Wawrinka played all Masters tournaments , but was usually eliminated early. Only in Monte-Carlo did he reach the quarter-finals, where he was faced with the eight-time winner Rafael Nadal and clearly defeated him in two sets. At his home tournament in Geneva , he celebrated the tournament victory as top seed, after a final victory over Marin Čilić . With this victory in his luggage, he traveled to defend his title at the French Open at the end of May , where the draw brought him luck. Nevertheless, he had to play over five sets in the first round against Lukáš Rosol before moving into the second round. After further victories over Taro Daniel , Jérémy Chardy , Viktor Troicki and Albert Ramos in the quarterfinals, he lost his semi-final game against Andy Murray in four sets. In the world rankings, he dropped from fourth to fifth place due to the 1280 points lost. At the third Grand Slam tournament in Wimbledon , where he had reached the quarter-finals last year, he met Juan Martín del Potro, who had returned from his long injury, in the second round . Despite winning the first set, Wawrinka lost clearly in four sets in the end.

Wawrinka at the AEGON Championships

After rather weaker results at the Masters tournaments in Toronto and Cincinnati and the cancellation of the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro , Wawrinka improved over the course of the US Open . After difficulties in the first round and defense of a match point in the third round against Daniel Evans , he faced Novak Đoković after victories over Juan Martín del Potro and Kei Nishikori in the final. The Serb, who had partly benefited from the tasks of his opponents, won the first set in the tiebreak. Then Wawrinka got stronger and took his opponent's serve several times. In the end he won 6: 7 (1: 7), 6: 4, 7: 5 and 6: 3. For Wawrinka it was the eleventh final in a row and his third Grand Slam title. The series of successful finals ended two weeks later with the defeat by Alexander Zverev at the tournament in St. Petersburg .

The 2016 season was the second most successful season of his career for Wawrinka with four tournament wins in five finals, 46 games won, 6365 world ranking points and the third Grand Slam title of his career at the US Open. In the end, as in the two previous seasons, he was 4th in the world rankings.

Injury break and change of coach (2017)

Wawrinka started the 2017 season by participating in the semi-finals in Brisbane , which he lost to Kei Nishikori in two sets. At the first Grand Slam tournament of the year in Australia , he started the tournament cautiously and had to play over five sets in the first round against Martin Kližan before he won 6: 4, 7: 5, 4: 6 after 3:24 hours. Could win 6: 4. In the next few rounds things went better for him, and he only had to give up one set in the third round match against Viktor Troicki on the way to the semi-finals . In the semifinals, there was another duel with his compatriot Roger Federer , who was in the semifinals of the Australian Open for the 13th time. Federer finally prevailed in a five-set match.

After a cancellation for Rotterdam and the first round in Dubai , he reached the final at the Indian Wells Masters and faced Roger Federer for the second time this year. Wawrinka lost the final in two sets with 4: 6 and 5: 7. In May he was able to successfully defend the title at his home tournament in Geneva , and at the French Open he reached his fourth Grand Slam final, which he clearly lost in three sets against the series winner Rafael Nadal . In the first round at Wimbledon , he met Daniil Medvedev , who had previously celebrated nine wins on grass and had reached the semi-finals in Eastbourne the week before. So it was not surprising that this Wawrinka demanded a lot and won the first sentence. Although Wawrinka managed to equalize the set, he lost the game in four sets in the end. During the game, he had to be treated several times on his left knee and was obviously battered. As a result, he could no longer offer his opponent any resistance.

In August 2017, Wawrinka announced that he was going to have surgery on his left knee. He had previously declared the season over and canceled the Masters tournaments in Montreal and Cincinnati. In October 2017, Wawrinka and his trainer Magnus Norman separated after four years of cooperation at the trainer's request. He was then looked after by his new trainer Yannick Fattebert, who had accompanied him alongside Magnus Norman for the past few years.

Comeback after knee surgery (since 2018)

After a six-month injury break, Wawrinka returned to the tennis court at the Australian Open in January 2018 . Only a few days earlier he had decided to make his comeback, after having postponed it several times. Against Ričardas Berankis he then delivered a duel over four sets in the first round, which he won 6: 3, 6: 4, 2: 6, 7: 6 (7: 2). Wawrinka himself said after the game that in the last four years he has never felt so tired after a game and that he still has a long way to go. This was also noticeable in the second round match against Tennys Sandgren , which he lost clearly in three sets.

At the beginning of February he started as the top seeded player in Sofia and reached the semi-finals after victories over Martin Kližan and Viktor Troicki . Wawrinka had no chance against qualifier Mirza Bašić , who had already eliminated Philipp Kohlschreiber in the second round . He then traveled to Rotterdam (1st round) and Marseille (round of 16), where he was eliminated from the tournament early. Shortly afterwards, he announced that he would be taking another break to give his knee the necessary recovery time after the operation. Accordingly, he skipped the Masters tournaments in Indian Wells and Miami and only returned to the field around three months after his last serious fight.

In mid-May at the Rome Masters he was unable to return to the ATP Tour, and he was eliminated in two sets against Steve Johnson in the first round . At the home tournament in Geneva , where he played as defending champion with a wildcard, he was eliminated in the quarter-finals against Márton Fucsovics with 4: 6 and 0: 6. Before that, it seemed unclear for a long time whether he would defend his title at all, as he had not been able to agree with the tournament officials on an extension of the contract with a corresponding entry fee. Ultimately, however, he decided to compete in his home country despite these circumstances and to forego an entry fee.

At the end of May he traveled to the French Open and was number 23 in the main field. His first-round opponent Guillermo García-López , who had already won five titles on the ATP World Tour, seemed a defeatable opponent, as he was eliminated in the first round of the Madrid Masters and failed in qualifying at the Masters in Rome a week later was. The game against the Spaniard went over five sets again, and Wawrinka had to call his physiotherapist on the pitch for the first time in the seventh game. As a result, however, he came into play better and better, was able to compensate for a set twice, before he ran out of strength in the fifth set and apparently his knee made itself felt again. In the end, Wawrinka lost 2: 6, 6: 3, 6: 4, 6: 7 (5: 7), 3: 6. Because of the 1200 points lost in last year's final, he fell from 30th to 263th in the world rankings on June 11, 2018, and thus out of the top 30 for the first time in over ten years - most recently on March 10, 2008.

In preparation for the third Grand Slam tournament in Wimbledon, Wawrinka decided to compete in the Fever Tree Championships at the Queen’s Club in London . As an unseeded player, he was lucky in the draw, and in the first round he faced local wildcard player Cameron Norrie , an unseeded player. Wawrinka lived up to his role as a favorite, celebrating his first win on grass since 2016 and only his fifth win this season. In the round of 16 against Sam Querrey , he missed several chances to win the first set and was eliminated in three sets.

Davis Cup

Stan Wawrinka has played for the Swiss Davis Cup team since 2004 . With this he celebrated his greatest success in 2014 when he, alongside Roger Federer, decided the final against France 3-1 in favor of Switzerland. It was Switzerland's first title win in the Davis Cup.

Playing style and special features

His backhand and serves, which can reach speeds of up to 232 km / h, are considered to be his particular strengths. In general, he acts powerfully from the baseline. Even when he is put under pressure by the opponent, he always manages with a slice to keep the opponent at the baseline and take the pace out of the game. In terms of space, it is very variable. He feels comfortable on both sand and hard courts. For a long time, breaking into important games was considered a weakness. This was proven by his first finals and the record against the best of the ATP world rankings. Over the years, however, Wawrinka improved his mental strength; the training under Magnus Norman paid special attention to exactly that weakness.

Wawrinka is often referred to as “Marathon-Man” or “Marathon-Stan”, because in larger tournaments he repeatedly plays games over the full distance of three or five sets, which are hard-fought. For example, he was on the tennis court in the longest Davis Cup match ever played . In the match between Switzerland and the Czech Republic in the 2013 season, Wawrinka played alongside Marco Chiudinelli against the doubles Tomáš Berdych / Lukáš Rosol . The match lasted a total of 7 hours and a minute before Chiudinelli made a double error to the end result of 4: 6, 7: 5, 4: 6, 7: 6 and 22:24 in favor of the Czechs.
