Wawrinka, Raonic advance at Paris Masters (Yahoo Sports)

Stan Wawrinka won his first match in more than a month Wednesday and advanced to the third round of the Paris Masters. The third-seeded Wawrinka ended a three-match losing streak with a 6-4, 7-6 (6) win over 37th-ranked Dominic Thiem, the youngest player in the top 50. ”I’m trying to find my confidence,” Wawrinka said. I can lose first round, and I can also go very far in a tournament.” Wawrinka closed out the match on his second occasion after the 21-year-old Thiem, who beat him on clay in Madrid in May, failed to convert a set point at 6-5 in the tiebreaker.
