Stan Wawrinka
Stan Wawrinka and Nick Kyrgios faced each other at the Rogers Cup today. The Swiss player had been taking it easy for most of his campaign since returning from injury. This time, Wawrinka got the best of the temperamental Australian to win 1-6, 7-5, 7-5 in the first round. He will next face Marton Fucsovics in the second round. The Hungarian player defeated Joao Sousa 6-4, 7-6 to advance into the second round.
Here is how Twitter reacted to the match.
Stan Wawrinka gets a big big win over Nick Kyrgios, 1-6, 7-5, 7-5 to reach the 2nd round in Toronto. Fun (but super weird) match.

That was quite something. Stan Wawrinka comes back from the tennis version of being dead to beat Nick Kyrgios 1-6 7-5 7-5. Two breaks of serve towards the end of both sets and a one-handed backhand on both set and match points.
Stats: Wawrinka 35w 23ue; Kyrgios 44w 34ue #atp

Not sure if I would even be able to hit *that* hard towards the outside of a tennis court.

Patches of brilliance from Nick during the match, some rockets, but not enough to win the match #Wawrinka #Kyrgios #RogersCup

They may never become best friends, but the post-match handshake between Stan Wawrinka and Nick Kyrgios was certainly cordial and respectful. #RogersCup pic.twitter.com/igB7VnPYbr
