Stan Wawrinka continues to enjoy tennis and clings to the elite with more willpower and heart than tennis level. His talent, daily effort, and passion are enough for him to maintain a ranking that allows him to continue living unforgettable experiences and paving his way out of professional tennis. These Paris 2024 Olympic Games will be very special for him.

That doubles gold medal he won with Federer holds a very notable place in the memories of the Lausanne tennis player. At that time, he was not a top-ranking player aspiring to glory in every tournament, as he managed to be a few years later. Stan's trajectory has always highlighted his passion for constantly improving and his supreme dedication to this sport. He achieved his dreams and now desires to conquer others; perhaps more earthly in competitiveness, but supreme in emotions.

At 39 years old, Wawrinka continues to enjoy this sport and sees no solid reasons to bid farewell to it. As long as he has the opportunity to compete in the major tournaments on the calendar, he will continue in the game. Currently ranked 109th in the world, his performance has considerably declined this season, suggesting that the end is closer than he would like. Hence, these Paris 2024 Olympic Games have a special flavor for him.

- Wawrinka will debut against Kotov, with whom he has unfinished business

"I love playing in Paris, and I am very excited to participate again in this event. Every athlete dreams of being an Olympian at some point, and the experiences I had in Beijing and London were unforgettable. Sharing time with the entire Swiss team is very exciting, and I am motivated to do well," said Stan Wawrinka, who could bid farewell to the courts of Roland Garros forever. He will debut against Pavel Kotov, whom he lost to a few months ago on the same grounds in the second round of the French Grand Slam.
