Monte Carlo Tournament | Alex De Minaur much too strong for Stan Wawrinka

(Monte-Carlo) Stan Wawrinka, winner in 2014, did not have the slightest chance of making good use of the pass from which he benefited so much Alex De Minaur (11^e world) was superior to win 6-3, 6-0, Tuesday in the first round of the Masters 1000 in Monte-Carlo.

The 39-year-old Swiss, former 3^e world dropped to 79^e rank, was overtaken by the Australian who only took 62 minutes to win.

Wawrinka, double Grand Slam winner, made a lot of unforced errors (28 against 18 for his opponent) and conceded too many winning points (12 against 4 successful) to threaten his opponent, who won this year’s title in Acapulco (tough).

In the next round, De Minaur will face the Dutchman Tallon Griekspoor (26^e).
