Here’s a look at the match preview between Stan Wawrinka vs Tommy Paul at the Queen’s Club Championships in the round of 16.
Stan Wawrinka and Frances Tiafoe put on a sublime display of tennis action in the tournament’s first round. Following a three-hour-long exchange, it was Swiss star Wawrinka who came out on top 7-6(2), 6-7(6), 7-6(5). Wawrinka, a two-time Grand Slam winner, has had a rather underwhelming 2022 season so far but the 37-year-old is finally looking to find some form mid-way through the year.
On the other hand, Tommy Paul has had quite a wonderful 2022 season so far. He reached the quarterfinals of the Adelaide International, Mexican Open and semifinals of the Delray Beach Open as well. He began his tournament in London in another impressive manner by beating Denis Shapalov 6-4, 2-6, 6-4 in the first round. He will now face another difficult opposition in Stan Wawrinka on Thursday.
