But let's see, how could they not allow Stan Wawrinka to have a 'last dance' at the Open de Australia? It hasn't been easy, many things had to happen. The most important of all, that Nick Kyrgios was honest with himself and gave up playing in the singles draw, which happened last night. Next, the move was clear. The tournament announced that their last three wildcard entries were for Jordan Thompson, Chris O’Connell... and Stan Wawrinka! Everyone happy, onto the next.
