How did Gael Monfils wish Stan Wawrinka?
Monfils had a special message for Wawrinka alluding to the age of the two performers.
“Happy Birthday, Stan the man. We are not getting old. We’re like wine, we’re getting better with time. Happy Birthday Brother, again.”
Notably, Monfils is also 33 years old (will turn 34 this year). However, we can’t agree more with the Frenchman. The two tennis stars are actually playing some very good tennis at the fag end of their careers.
Wawrinka was on a mini resurgence wave has he made it to the quarterfinals of the Australian Open. In fact, he stunned top 5 player Daniil Medvedev along the way.

However, Monfils took Novak to the limit. Arguably, that was the only match where Novak has looked vulnerable in 2020 with the exception of the Australian Open 2020 finals against Dominic Thiem.
We hope that both stars continue to perform brillianrtly whenever the tennis season resumes.
