Swiss tennis star Stan Wawrinka has cemented his name in the history books of this elegant sport. For a number of years, he lived under the shadows of his compatriot – Swiss Maestro Roger Federer.

Sadly, the former World No. 3 player has been suffering from injuries that have kept him out of action for a while. Wawrinka made his return back on the courts after almost a year at the ATP Challenger event in Marbella.

“I know that my level will be much better at Roland-Garros, there is still a lot of time to prepare for the tournament, so for sure I will show a much better shape. I am not worried about Roland-Garros nor Wimbledon.”
