Despite his
aggressive game, the closest Wawrinka has ever come to a trophy on grass was
three years ago when he reached the final in s-Hertogenbosch in the
Netherlands. Wawrinka has signed up 1996 Wimbledon champion Richard Krajicek as a coach to work
alongside Magnus Norman for this summer's spell on grass as he looks to improve
his results on the surface. The new arrangement was to get off to a losing
start as Verdasco, with his powerful forehand, claimed the opening set and then
a tight second set in a tiebreak.
Verdasco said “I am very happy with today's win. It's always important to beat a player like Wawrinka. This is my first match of the season on grass and I'm very happy with the level that I played today”.
Wawrinka is the second seeded player to exit the event in as many matches after fourth seed Richard Gasquet lost on Monday to American Steve Johnson.
