Davis Cup Flashback – Roger Federer’s Perfect Message Ceased Rumors of Feud With Swiss Friend After Wife Mirka’s ‘Cry Baby’ Accusation

Over the years during their illustrious careers, Roger Federer and Stan Wawrinka have enjoyed great bonding on and off the court. The two Swiss nationals are good friends despite being on-court rivals. Further, they have also won a gold medal together for their country at the 2008 Beijing Olympics. However, there was one infamous incident that threatened their friendship. But the Swiss maestro had a perfect response to end those rumors of unrest between the two.

Federer and Wawrinka have been involved in several memorable encounters. During one such encounter, a controversy occurred, involving Federer’s wife, Mirka.

When Roger Federer slammed a perfect reply

During the 2014 ATP World Tour Finals, Federer was up against Wawrinka in the semifinals of the tournament. In what was a nerve-wracking match, Federer’s wife was vocal in support of the former World Number 1. Additionally, she also apparently called Wawrinka ‘cry baby’ during the contest.

It didn’t go down well with Wawrinka as he appeared to point to Mirka with his racquet and ask Federer: “What did she say?” Subsequently, he also went on to complain to the chair umpire, “She did the same thing at Wimbledon. Every time I am on her side she yells before I serve. It’s unbearable.”

However, Federer later revealed that the two are friends and not enemies. Additionally, he shared a picture with his Davis Cup teammates ahead of their tie and said, “It’s great being with the boys again ..”

This message was a perfect end to the speculation of a rift between Federer and Wawrinka. The latter has always enjoyed playing with and against Federer. His gratitude-filled message strongly defines it.

Wawrinka remembers the golden moment

Earlier this year in an interview, Wawrinka reminisced about one of the best achievements of his career – winning an Olympic gold medal with Federer. Subsequently, he had words of gratitude for the Swiss maestro.

Talking about this, he said, “One of my best experiences was also the Olympic victory in 2008 in doubles [with Federer]. Being in the Olympic village with the Swiss delegation and then winning gold was a life experience.”

While Federer’s career has ended, Wawrinka is nearing the end of his glorious career. The two have served Swiss tennis immensely and their void will be difficult to fill.
