Novak Djokovic and Stan Wawrinka had a very fun session today on Instagram live. While fans were very excited to see the two together, they certainly did not disappoint.

One of the more fun discussions between the two involved Stan Wawrinka’s age. Notably, Wawrinka recently celebrated his 35th birthday amidst the lockdown. As sad as that sounds, it was the reality for millions of others around the world.

However, the discussion here was about the look of Stan Wawrinka, which never gives away his age. The Swiss superstar certainly doesn’t look like a person who’s probably looking at the twilight of his career. Djokovic was also very curious about Wawrinka‘s incredibly evergreen figure.

The entire discussion started with an interesting fan question. People just can’t get their head around the fact that the same Stan Wawrinka who uploads rigorous workout videos on a daily basis is 35.

Wawrinka: You don’t want to know. It’s not vegan!

Stan was alluding to the fact that Novak Djokovic is a strictly vegan man. Post this, Novak started joking about the fact that the potion was possibly alcohol which Wawrinka famously likes. Anyone who’s seen the previous Instagram lives of Stan Wawrinka with Benoit Paire wouldn’t dispute that fact.

Djokovic asked Stan whether he preferred French wine (why, French Open history, maybe?). However, Wawrinka revealed that he was more of an Italian wine person. Djokovic concluded that Stan was a romantic.

Just imagine the two stars when the tennis season was in full swing. Nobody could have thought that they would see an Instagram live with Novak and Stan discussing alcohol. The quarantine has certainly contributed in giving the fans some never before content.
