I found this match in some "list of the best Grand Chelem matches" or something. Indeed, it's a real treasure. What a pleasure to watch it in this unprecedented period of no-pro-tennis activity.
if someone told me at the time that stan would win the Australian French and us over the next three years I wouldn't believe it. Let's go Stan Wimbly2017!
It's just a pity that he didn't do it earlier in his career. But he is an excellent example for those who lose hope to win a (or several) Chelem(s) while approaching their 30.
Excellent match! Stan and Novak had a few instant classics. That being said, a match like this is further proof that the Slams took far too long to reach the common sense consensus on 10-point breakers in the 5th set. Never found extra games to be compelling. It just becomes a battle of endurance instead of shotmaking. Having a vastly different set of rules for the 5th was always bonkers to me.
Djokovic won but this was the first time I'd seen a player overpower him on a hard court. Yes, I know Federer beat him on hard courts as well as Nadal, but they weren't the type of matches where I thought gosh, he's getting blew off the court and that was when he was young not prime number 1 as he was here still won 6-1 4-1 down crazy.
Exactly. I'd say Stanimal (and later Medvedev) is the only guy who can go toe to toe with Djokovic from the baseline, no slices, no looping forehands, just pure ball striking
@@mrhatman675 The slice is a huge part of Fed's weapons as he uses it to set up his shots a lot though. The best ball striker should be able to go toe to toe with anyone from the baseline AND off both wings
3:53:29 The moment that changed the outcome of the match.. Got to blame the chair umpire for this blunder n that too at the most crucial juncture of match.
3:53:30 Stan robbed. Djokovic seems to have hyperopia and umpire must've been napping. Not to mention the line umpire spoiling a solid, crucial return. A short, slow attackable ball from Djokovic.
Fully agree. Stan could have served for the match! Still, I always tell myself that even though it's a gutting loss for Stan and I wished he had won the match at the time, maybe he needed to lose in order to become the player he went on to become. Maybe if he had won, he would never have become a 3x slam champion!
It is amazing that the exhibition of unnecessary arrogance by Djokovic is tolarated by elders in the game of Tennis . I think Wawrinka has good future. Rao Kalluri
Best fouth round match ever

For me it's the best hard court match in history
This was the match, which made Stan great

@@Blancrougeblancit proves that modern technology can help players stay in their prime even in their 30s.
The set point from Stan at 3:02 in the 4th set tie breaker is pure bliss!

The audio is completely out of sync. Can you please fix it and upload it again?
Not just out of sync but absolutely terrible :(
Wawrinka was two points away from being two sets to love..; not only an amazing win for Novak, but an incredíble loss for Stan
19:36 - My favorite point
3:53:48 the most pivotal point. 2013 could be so much different if Wawrinka challenged this ball.
This match gave a free pass for Wawrinka to enter Djoker's head!
How many match slam he had so lucky..It is Amazing
Once aus open was renovated and changed to blue. Novak was a different beast on aus open since 2008.
Stan my favorite player. Always a great game.
Two monters !!!!!
my favourite too :D
Stanimal started like Gilchrist does for Aussies, Jayasuriya for the Lankans, Sehwag for the Indians, Gayle for the Windies, ...
Le son n'est pas synchro
Dommage le son est décalé à partir du second set ...

@@mrhatman675 oh you mean the guy who come crunch time, starts to hit the ball long or into the net......that guy....?
It’s fair to say that broke Wawrinka’s confidence was way harder than enslave Federer
Goran watching in audience?? 53:21 ...Never knew that

The moment that changed the outcome of the match.. Got to blame the chair umpire for this blunder n that too at the most crucial juncture of match.
Yes but even if Stan challenged the point would have been replayed because Novak returned the ball back
Stan the man! 😀

worst no challenge of all time
Well, Stan was rewarded later in Roland Garros 2015. Djok had cleared him the way from Nadal (only 2nd Nadal's defeat in RG in history!) and lost.
Even if Stan challenged the point would have been replayed
@@velekorunoski5997 He was robbed because the incorrect call shouldn't have been made in the first place
"He knows he'll never step out of the shadow of roger federer..." Look at him now
It's not Stain it's Stan... Jesus...
The day when Stan got into Djokovic's head
Severin Luthi was there to push Stan to beat Novak. Severin wants his boy to return to No. 1.
Nole is my favorite player, but on this one, Stan should have won...So unfair for him.
Sandy whocares shoulda woulda coulda
If he had lost here to Wawrinka, Federer would have returned to No. 1 and add 4 weeks to his time as No. 1.
But he didn't.
that mach point... epic! Novak1 the best
