Stan the man! Wawrinka comes back from a set down to beat Djokovic in four and win US Open (... his third Grand Slam title)
Draining the physical and mental resources of Novak Djokovic may be the hardest thing to do in tennis, but that is what Stan Wawrinka managed as he dramatically claimed the US Open title.
The burly Swiss just about held his nerve and concentration despite a controversial injury timeout taken by the world No 1 when he trailed 3-1 in the fourth set (top right). Despite being stalled before his own serve Wawrinka held on to win 6-7, 6-4, 7-5, 6-3 in three hours and 55 minutes as justice prevailed.
