Stan Wawrinka, who defeated Jo-Wilfried Tsonga 6-3 6-7 (1-7) 7-6 (7-3) 6-4 in the semi-finals of the French Open, is now eyeing to win his second grand slam crown, and join the list of all time tennis greats.
With this win, Wawrinka can join the all-time greats Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray as only the fifth man in the past decade to win multiple majors
Confident after his semi-final victory, he said that when he plays my best, he knows he could beat all the players, insisting that he have been playing really well since the beginning of the tournament, stuff.co.nz reported.
He also said that he has been really focused on the way he was playing, on the way he was dealing mentally with my pressure and with the way he wanted to go into the tournament.
After defeating Djokovic and Nadal to win last year's Australian Open in spectacular fashion and sweeping past Federer on route to the final in Paris, Wawrinka feels ready to go past one-slam wonder success.
Australia's former world number one Lleyton Hewitt is the only other active player to have landed at least two slams.
