Roland Garros' first men's semi-final took place in accordance with the scenario that fans expected with many beautiful attacks. Set 1 was balanced when both started well and established a tight playing style. Each player can only have 1 break from the opponent and must solve the problem of winning or losing by a tie break. Murray showed more fear to beat 8-6 Wawrinka in this shootout.
Entering set 2, Wawrinka suddenly accelerated with powerful left shots. Despite efforts to adapt, Murray could not respond as desired. In the end, the English tennis player lost 2 breaks, thereby losing 3-6.
Set 3 and 4 witnessed an attractive performance by the two players. While the "left one-hand" moves helped Wawrinka flourish, Murray showed his superb defensive ability. The victory in the 2 sets was divided equally when Murray won 7-5 in set 3 while Wawrinka started a spectacular comeback from a 7-6 victory in set 4.
Although he was always the leader in the match, losing the 4th set to the opponent caused the spirit of the world No. 1 to seriously decline. Murray lost the break and quickly gave up the racket with a score of 1-6 in set 5.
After 5 dramatic sets, Wawrinka won convincingly against Murray with the scores of sets of 6-7, 6-3, 5-7,7-6 and 6-1, thereby getting a ticket to the Final match. "Stan the man" will wait for the opponent to win the Semi-final 2 between Rafael Nadal and Dominic Thiem.
