Stanislas Wawrinka stunned Novak Djokovic to win his first French Open title and thwart the world number one’s career Grand Slam hopes.
The Swiss eighth seed played magnificently in a 4-6 6-4 6-3 6-4 victory at Roland Garros.
Wawrinka, 30, brought an end to Djokovic’s 28-match winning streak as he claimed his second Grand Slam title.
Djokovic had been hoping to become the eighth man to complete the set of all four major titles.
The
28-year-old Serb had been a strong favourite to finally get his hands
on the Coupe des Mousquetaires after beating nine-time champion Rafael
Nadal and third seed Andy Murray, but he was outplayed by Wawrinka.
