A very nice tennes game on Jun. 07, 2015  French open final 

 

My idol Novak Djokovic has won many champions.  In the 2015 French open, he was unable to win the trophy, Djokovic had been hoping to become the eighth man to complete the set of all four major titles.

It was very touching to hear Djokovic said  "There are things that are more important in life than victories and that is character and respect - Stan you are a great champion with big heart."  We could see what a inspired words from Djokovic.

我們在 Djokovic 身上看到一位常勝運動家的典範 在運動場上輸贏乃兵家常事  重要的是在輸了對手後那種發自內心真誠的祝福  此乃運動者的真正精神

Stanislas Wawrinka stuns Novak Djokovic to win French Open

 

Stanislas Wawrinka stunned Novak Djokovic to win his first French Open title and thwart the world number one's career Grand Slam hopes.

 

The Swiss eighth seed played magnificently in a 4-6 6-4 6-3 6-4 victory at Roland Garros.

 

Wawrinka, 30, brought an end to Djokovic's 28-match winning streak as he claimed his second Grand Slam title.

Shorts won French Open - Wawrinka

 

Djokovic had been hoping to become the eighth man to complete the set of all four major titles.

 

But the Serb will have to wait at least another 12 months before attempting to match the full set of major titles collected by Andre Agassi, Don Budge, Roy Emerson, Roger Federer, Rod Laver, Rafael Nadal and Fred Perry.

 

The 28-year-old had been a strong favourite to finally get his hands on the Coupe des Mousquetaires after beating nine-time champion Rafael Nadal and third seed Andy Murray, but he was outplayed by Wawrinka.

 

"It was an incredible atmosphere on court and I felt emotion like I never have before," said Wawrinka.

 

Analysis, BBC Tennis correspondent Russell Fuller

"Stan Wawrinka knew he would have to produce his very finest tennis for at least three sets, and he did just that - in only his second experience of a Grand Slam final.

"The backhand down the line winner to seal the decisive break in the fourth set was the most breathtaking of all, but only one example of the array of glorious attacking shots that made even Djokovic look flustered.

"The world number one played well enough to have beaten almost anyone, but for 3 hours and 12 minutes, Wawrinka didn't play like just anyone."

 

"I would like to thank my coach Magnus Norman. You played in the final without winning but this victory is yours as well as mine."

 

Djokovic was effusive in his praise for the new champion: "There are things that are more important in life than victories and that is character and respect - Stan you are a great champion with big heart."

 

Their last four matches in Grand Slams had gone to five sets and this was every bit as good in terms of quality, with Wawrinka hitting 60 winners as his aggression broke down the seemingly invincible Djokovic defence.

 

The victory makes him only the second Swiss to win at Roland Garros after Roger Federer, the man he beat in the quarter-finals.

 

Having lost the first set of the final following a poor service game at 3-3, Wawrinka came storming back with a barrage of winners that left Djokovic looking lost for a response.

 

Four break points came and went in the second set before the fifth arrived in the shape of a set point, and Wawrinka finally converted to level the match.
