Stan Wawrinka vs Luka Van Assche: Preview

Stan Wawrinka has not been able to recreate the feats that he achieved when he defeated Novak Djokovic in the Grand Slam finals. He had to go on an extended hiatus due to an injury in 2021. He fell in 2022, but he has been steadily rising through the ranks in 2023. And now, Wawrinka has revived his form to some extent. He has played as far as round three in grand slams and round four in Masters tournaments.

The end-season fatigue seemed to be affecting the Swiss player as he stumbled on his way to the Moselle Open. However, a dominant victory of 6-0, 6-2 in his first-round bout seems to have revived his vigor.
