Australian Open Tennis Championship 2014 Men's Singles Won Stanislas
Wawrinka
Stanislas
Wawrinka won his maiden Grand Slam crown, overcoming an injury-afflicted Rafael
Nadal to win a dramatic Australian Open men's singles final in four sets at the
Rod Laver Arena .
The Swiss won
6-3, 6-2, 3-6, 6-3 in a match that will be remembered for a confusing and
sometimes bizarre final three sets, with Nadal clearly hampered by a left lower
back injury and seemingly on the verge of retirement in the second set.
Wawrinka will become the first Swiss No.1 other than Federer in 13 years. Wawrinka's maiden Grand Slam success comes in his 36th major; only Goran Ivanisevic (37) has taken longer to win a first major crown.
