Wawrinka shocks world no.1 Djokovic to win Roland Garros


Did you expect this? Well I did not - but in the heart of my heart I had a doubt that made me suspicious of Djokovic winning the Roland Garros this year.

It seemed the world no.1 was a little over confident and a bit proud for sailing smoothly to the finals - specially after beating nine time Roland Garros winner and defending champion Rafael Nadal in the fourth round. And perhaps he never thought of  a setback at the hand of world no.8 in the finals.

But he was to be surprised in the finals today when a rather docile Stanislas Wawrinka stunned and shocked world number one Novak Djokovic 4-6 6-4 6-3 6-4 to win the French Open - and his second Grand Slam title.



Wawrinka, the eight seed, was not deterred after losing the first set to Djokovic and hit back with all his might and tact to over awe the Serb and dominated him in the next three sets to win the Roland Garros men's single title for year 2015 4-6 6-4 6-3 6-4.

"I played the match of my life, it's hard to believe. Playing against Novak was one of the biggest challenges. I know how much he wanted this Roland Garros," Wawrinka said after the match.

Monte Carlo Quarterfinals: Nadal vs Wawrinka - watch live online

The Monte Carlo Rolex Masters tennis is getting into to decisive phase as Murray, Djokovic, Tsonga and Nadal enter into the quarterfinals of the tournament.


Nadal vs Wawrinka

In his quarterfinal duel, Spaniard Rafel Nadal, the World Numebr Two and the defending champion, meets 26th ranked Stanislas Wawrinka Friday morning.

Rafeal who beat Mikhail Kukushkin on Thursday evening 6-1, 6-1 has lost only two of his last played ten matches, the latest at the hands of Federer in the Indian Wells. His second loss was against Murray in Miami when Nadal retired due to his injury. 

Stanislas Wawrinka has lost three of his last ten matches, the latest at the Indian Wells at the hands of G Simon 6-4, 6-4.

Both players are not new to each other as they have played seven matches since 2007, all of which were won over by the Spaniard.

For Friday morning's match, Nadal is hot favourite, provided his knee injury doesnt come in his way to move forward and defend his title eighth consecutive time - something that djokovic and Murray are also eye at.

The match is scheduled to be played at Friday 20 April 2012 at 11:30 GMT
