Authentic drama lived this afternoon at the ATP 250 in Bucharest with the debut of Stan Wawrinka against Timofey Skatov. We knew it was a match with a high chance of going long, but we never would have thought it would last for 3 hours and 18 minutes. It was tougher for the Swiss than expected, as he had two match points to close it in two sets, only to find himself down 3-5 in the third, but that's tennis. Great victory for the Swiss (6-4, 6-7, 7-6), although he will need many more like this if he wants a seat at the next Roland Garros. A lot of confidence will be needed, something not so easy to come by these days.
