Stan Wawrinka found unexpected support in the stands during his match at the Dubai Tennis Championships, where an enthusiastic fan, Harjyot Singh, stood out with constant cheers for the Swiss veteran. The moment occurred during Wawrinka’s appearance at the ATP tournament in Dubai, when Singh’s loud encouragement drew attention from both spectators and the three-time Grand Slam champion.
While the crowd remained relatively quiet, Singh repeatedly chanted Wawrinka’s name throughout the match. “I just wanted to support a legend of the game,” Singh said after the match. “Players like him deserve that energy from the fans.”
Wawrinka later acknowledged the supporter and smiled toward the stands during play. “It’s great when someone brings that kind of passion,” the Swiss star said. “You feel the support and it gives you extra motivation on court.”
For Singh, the brief interaction became a memorable highlight. “Seeing him react made the whole experience incredible,” he added. “I’ll never forget that moment.”
