In Marseille, Stanislas Wawrinka defeated Richard Gasquet and secured a return to the Top 100 this week. Not insignificant at 37 years old. For many months now, Stan The Man has been working hard physically and has been clinging on to the top level. This return to the Top 100 has a lot of meaning for the Swiss.
“I feel better and better physically. Mentally, it’s more complicated. I’m pushing myself to get back to my level and I haven’t taken a break. I’m struggling a bit with concentration but these are great wins and I hope to continue.”
“The Top 100, I was thinking about it a little today. It’s still a mythical and incredible number. You have to appreciate it. I’m happy and I don’t want to stop here. You have to appreciate every step.”
