Difficult draw for Wawrinka

class=”sc-3778e872-0 cKDKQr”>

What is Stan Wawrinka capable of in Madrid?

Stan Wawrinka (ATP 84), equipped with a wildcard, will meet the American Maxime Cressy (ATP 39) at the Masters 1000 tournament in Madrid this and next week.

The 38-year-old from Vaud will play against the service volleyball specialist for the first time. The winner of this match will play against Russia’s number 5 Andrei Rublev (ATP 6), who recently won his first Masters 1000 tournament in Monte Carlo.

Marc-Andrea Hüsler, who has not been up to speed lately and has dropped from 63rd to 76th place in the world rankings, will face Cristian Garin (ATP 73) from Chile in the first round. Zurich’s next opponent would be Serbian Miomir Kecmanovic (ATP 33).

The only Swiss in Madrid is Jil Teichmann (WTA 30), who enjoys a bye in the 1st round before meeting the winner of the match between Ukraine’s Lesia Tsurenko (WTA 77) and Italy’s Lucia Bronzetti (WTA 97). The Swiss number 1, Belinda Bencic (WTA 11), had to refrain from participation due to hip problems. (SDA/SME)
