Stan Wawrinka and his (now former) coach Magnus Norman enjoyed enormous success in the 8 years of their partnership. As per Wawrinak’s words, the Swede was crucial for Stan to win 3 slams and to be a constant thorn for the big 3. Magnus and Stan also developed a deep friendship that went well beyond their professional relationship.
However, the couple decided to split after so much time and Stan didn’t miss the chance to leave a heartfelt message on social media thanking Magnus as follows:
“Thank you !
After 8 great years together @swedennorman and I have decided to part ways by mutual consent. We have had a amazingly strong, enjoyable and hugely successful partnership. We reached the height of this sport together and I want to thank him for helping me win everything that I could ever dreamt of winning. He’s been a great coach, friend and mentor and will always be a dear friend.I want to publicly thank him for all his hard work dedication and commitment in making me a better player over the years. Winning 3 grand slams has been a life changing experience for me and I could not have done that without him. Wishing him all the best in his next chapter in his life ! ❤️🙏🏻”
