I was extremely nervous," reveals Wawrinka after his victory in Basel

Stan Wawrinka won his first round match in Basel against Miomir Kecmanovic. The Swiss player achieved his first victory on the main tour since July.

Interviewed on court after his match, in comments reported by Tennis Legend, Wawrinka appeared very satisfied: "For me, it's always incredible to come back too. There's always a huge amount of stress because I always want to do well.

I was extremely nervous. Plus, with age, it doesn't help. I'm very happy to have pulled off such a match, it's by far the best of the year. Plus, doing it here, in Switzerland, is pure happiness.

Thank you for the emotions. Thank you for the support. It's thanks to you that I try to continue a little longer, it's precisely to experience evenings like this one. I want to enjoy it.

I haven't won many matches this year. I've passed 40 years old. I'm happy to still be able to experience such evenings. To still perform at this level, it's pure happiness. I train very hard every day for that.
