Wawrinka said, “He wasn’t really there from the beginning, wasn’t serving his best.You never know what to expect, because again, as you see when he broke me back at 3-4, he was playing really well.”

Wawrinka said on the Kyrgios comment, “He’s a tennis player, I’m a tennis player. We are not friends, for sure. We don’t go for dinner together. But there is nothing else. We see each other on the Tour every week almost. That’s it.
