That's totally fair. Sometimes you need to take advantage of an upset and make your run.

I realize he got bounced at RG, but I look at what Wawrinka did at the 2014 Aussie Open. At his age and to take that Major when he did, really gives me hope. His match against Djokovic in the QF was pretty epic. He showed the tennis world anything is possible.
