By tilting narrowly after three hours of play (7-6, 3-6, 6-7), last Sunday, in the Aix-en-Provence Challenger final against Croatian Borna Coric (84th in the world), Stan Wawrinka, a Provençal week star, thought he had lost enough for the day … But “Stan The Man” was unfortunately not at the end of his sorrows.
“It’s ugly!”
The Swiss with the three Grand Chelem titles will have a bitter memory of his stay in Provence, the fault of a bad spirit which believed to act by stealing its work tool. A few hours after the final, Stan Wawrinka revealed the unthinkable on his Instagram account. “”To the person who stole my racket (Sunday) after the final: it’s ugly!“, He posted, with the image of his old property in close-up, without giving more details on the circumstances of the flight.
Aside from this unusual (and necessarily regrettable) event, the loss of a tailor -made racket, Stan Wawrinka will still have raised 90 points on the Aix clay, which allowed him to grab 26 places in the ATP ranking to now appear in the 132nd row.
