Stan Wawrinka has split with longtime coach Magnus Norman.  Wawrinka announced the news of the split on Instagram.  Norman has been Wawrinka’s coach since 2013. During his time as a coach, Wawrinka won 3 grand slam titles and a total of 13 ATP titles.

During his time with Norman, Wawrinka was able to successfully challenge the Big Four – Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic, and Andy Murray, at their peak. Wawrinka underwent two knee surgeries in 2017. His ranking slipped to No. 263 but his rankings have since bounced back to No. 13.

After 8 great years together @swedennorman and I have decided to part ways by mutual consent. We have had a amazingly strong, enjoyable and hugely successful partnership. We reached the height of this sport together and I want to thank him for helping me win everything that I could ever have dreamt of winning. He’s been a great coach, friend and mentor and will always be a dear friend. I want to publicly thank him for all his hard work dedication and commitment in making me a better player over the years. Winning 3 grand slams has been a life changing experience for me and I could not have done that without him. Wishing him all the best in his next chapter in his life

Wawrinka skipped the 2020 US Open due to the health situation in New York. He will participate in the upcoming French Open. 

Prior to coaching  Wawrinka, Magnus Norman coached Robin Soderling helping him reach two French Open finals and win a Masters title. 

A 17-year old girl is claiming that Daniil Medvedev wanted to have a relationship with her during the US Open. Medvedev, of course, is married and if the allegations true, was trying to cheating on his wife.

Since the girl is anonymous, we don’t really know who she is or if she is really 17 years old as she claims or even if the story is true.  The girl has said that she is not after money. Her goal is to prove that Medvedev is a creep.

The girl in question has shared evidence of her conversation with Medvedev. She followed him on his main IG account and he reached out to her via an anonymous account. A lot of dirty talks ensued and the girl has evidence of the conversation captured on video and screenshots.

Medvedev would type a message and quickly delete it to protect himself. He even followed her for a minute or so on the main IG to prove it’s him and then quickly unfollowed her.

The Internet is full of stories like this where people try to take down a popular personality. But in this case, there seems to be a lot of evidence that Medvedev was indeed up to something here. But we can never be sure until he confirms or denies the rumor.

Here are some screenshots from the anonymous girls’ Twitter feed.
