Hooaja esimese suure sl\u00e4mmi tenniseturniiri ehk Austraalia lahtiste meistriv\u00f5istluste korraldajad otsustasid viimase vabap\u00e4\u00e4sme anda endisele maailma kolmandale reketile, viimast hooaega profituuril m\u00e4ngivale 40-aastasele \u0161veitslasele Stan Wawrinkale.<\/p>\n
Kolmekordne sl\u00e4mmiv\u00f5itja Wawrinka v\u00f5itis karj\u00e4\u00e4ri esimese suure sl\u00e4mmi turniiri just Melbourne’is 12 aastat tagasi.<\/p>\n
Maailma edetabelis 156. reale langenud Wawrinka ei p\u00e4\u00e4senud otse Austraalia lahtiste p\u00f5hitabelisse ja kvalifikatsiooni ta ennast \u00fcles ei andnud, kuid t\u00e4nu korraldajate vabap\u00e4\u00e4smele saab ta siiski turniiril osaleda. T\u00e4navu m\u00e4ngib ta Austraalia lahtistel 20. korda.<\/p>\n
“Austraalia lahtiste v\u00f5itmine 2014. aastal on minu karj\u00e4\u00e4ri \u00fcks tipphetki, nii et olen \u00e4\u00e4rmiselt t\u00e4nulik, et selle vabap\u00e4\u00e4sme sain,” r\u00f5\u00f5mustas Wawrinka. “See, et saan enda karj\u00e4\u00e4ri viimasel hooaja alguses m\u00e4ngida ka Austraalia lahtistel t\u00e4hendab mulle v\u00e4ga palju.”<\/p>\n
Wawrinka, kes teatas karj\u00e4\u00e4ri l\u00f5petamisest vahetult enne j\u00f5ule, on t\u00e4navust hooaega v\u00e4ga h\u00e4sti alustanud. United Cupil alistas ta prantslase Arthur Rinderknechi (ATP 27.) ja osutas siis k\u00f5va vastupanu ka itaallasele Flavio Cobollile (ATP 22.) ja argentiinlasele Sebastian Baezile (ATP 43.). United Cupi poolfinaalis l\u00e4heb \u0160veits vastamisi Belgiaga.<\/p>\n
Enne Wawrinkat andsid Austraalia lahtiste korraldajad teada, et vabap\u00e4\u00e4sme said ka kohalikud m\u00e4ngijad Jordan Thompson ja Christopher O’Connell. Kunagine maailma 13. reket ja endine Wimbledoni finalist Nick Kyrgios, kes pole erinevate vigastuste t\u00f5ttu viimastel hooaegadel v\u00e4ga palju m\u00e4nginud, teatas \u00fchismeedias, et kuigi kodune sl\u00e4mmiturniir on tema jaoks v\u00e4ga oluline, pole ta veel valmis \u00fcksikm\u00e4ngus kaasa tegema ja \u00fctles Austraalia tenniseliidule, et nad annaks vabap\u00e4\u00e4sme kellelegi, kes on paremas m\u00e4nguvormis. Kyrgios ise teeb kaasa paarism\u00e4ngus.<\/p>\n
Austraalia lahtiste kvalifikatsiooniturniir algab 12. jaanuaril, p\u00f5hitabelim\u00e4ngudega alustatakse 18. jaanuaril.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Hooaja esimese suure sl\u00e4mmi tenniseturniiri ehk Austraalia lahtiste meistriv\u00f5istluste korraldajad otsustasid viimase vabap\u00e4\u00e4sme anda endisele maailma kolmandale reketile,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":81513,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[18],"tags":[36286,37,33,35,34,36,159,158,16557,36287],"class_list":{"0":"post-81512","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-sport","8":"tag-austraalia-lahtised-tennises","9":"tag-ee","10":"tag-eesti","11":"tag-eesti-keel","12":"tag-estonia","13":"tag-estonian","14":"tag-sport","15":"tag-sports","16":"tag-stan-wawrinka","17":"tag-tennise-austraalia-lahtised"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@ee\/115864901029266884","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ee\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/81512","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ee\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ee\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ee\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ee\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=81512"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ee\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/81512\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ee\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/81513"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ee\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=81512"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ee\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=81512"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ee\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=81512"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
