Wawrinka bids farewell to US Open after missing out on wildcard
Former champion Stan Wawrinka will miss a final Flushing Meadows appearance in what he says will be his final season.
Former US Open champion Stan Wawrinka has bid farewell to Flushing Meadows after being denied a wildcard into the main draw, ending his hopes of a final appearance at the year's last Grand Slam. The Swiss veteran, who has won the title in New York in 2016, competed at the Australian Open, French Open, and Wimbledon this year on wildcards but will miss the US Open, where he will not compete in this week's qualifying tournament either.
Wawrinka expressed his gratitude for the city, stating that it challenged and pushed him, bringing out emotions he has never experienced elsewhere.
