In Monte Carlo, Monaco, the ATP singles tournament is underway. On Tuesday, April 9, in the 1/32 final match, the 11th-ranked player in the world, De Minaur, faced off against Stanislas Wawrinka, ranked 79th in the world.

The Australian tennis player defeated the Swiss in two sets - 6:3 and 6:0. This marks Stan's sixth defeat in 2024. The former Olympic champion and winner of the US Open and French Open has only won two games this year. Stan secured one victory at the tournament in Buenos Aires and another at the competition in Morocco.

Stan Wawrinka is a Swiss professional tennis player, an Olympic champion, and the winner of three Grand Slam tournaments: the Australian Open 2014, the French Open 2015, and the US Open 2016, as well as the Monte Carlo Masters 2014.

Wawrinka earned the title of Olympic champion at the Beijing Olympics in the doubles category alongside Roger Federer. Wawrinka possesses one of the best one-handed backhands among professional tennis players. It's his favorite shot.

The world's third-ranked tennis player, Carlos Alcaraz, has announced his withdrawal from the Monte-Carlo Masters due to incomplete recovery from a right arm injury.
