Athènes Wawrinka

Competing in Athens this week, Stan Wawrinka once again amazed fans by winning his first-round match, and he did so past the age of 40.

Facing Botic van de Zandschulp on the center court of the ATP 250 in Athens, the Swiss player fought hard to overcome his opponent of the day.

Result: after a 2-hour and 20-minute battle, Stan "The Man" eventually prevailed 2-6, 7-6, 7-5, thereby securing a spot in the tournament's second round. He will face world number 9 Lorenzo Musetti.

Now ranked 159th in the world, the three-time Grand Slam champion not only won an important duel in Greece but also treated the audience to some very high-level points.
