Wawrinka: I have not seen Federer to play like this sinse years

Roger Federer beat Stan Wawrinka in three sets and qualified for the final of the US Open 2015. After the defeat Wawrinka stood before the medias and did not hide his disappointment, but at the same time has found the strength to give the tribute to his countryman.

"Roger played very fast and at the same time I did not show my best tennis. My serve was not on the required level. The way he played deserves a respect. After he made the first breakthrough he became more calm, and the things started to grow even faster. At the same time, I could not be aggressive from the baseline, and the serve wasn`t helping me. But Federer was just too good,he was definitely better than me, "said Wawrinka.

Wawrinka shared his opinion also for serve of Federer: "Before we play now, I watched a couple of his matches mentioned by sport predictions from Cincinnati. He is moving quickly, he is aggressive, he is serving very stable. Surely his initial shot was better than mine tonight. Today he was just incredible. Even when he was defending, he did it inside the court. "

Generally however Wawrinka was pleased with his performance not only in New York, but also during the season. "We have to look overall the things. I qualified for the semifinals at the US Open without playing my best tennis. Looking at my results at the Grand Slam during the season I could not want more. The year was incredible for me, "said Wawrinka.

"Roger is always trying to improve his game. During the year he changed his racket, which has never been easy. If you look at his results after Wimbledon, you will see that he is on a completely different level. If he would retain his form it will be very hard to beat him. We will see who will win at the final. Roger is very close to his best form. I have not seen him to play on that way for years. Against Novak, Roger will certainly must be aggressive. Many things will depend on whether Djokovic will be able to dictate the game. The beginning of the game will be very important. Roger certainly has the arguments to win, we`ll see what will happened, "said Wawrinka.
