Wawrinka bows out of US Open without wildcard, grateful for New York memories

Stan Wawrinka, 41, will retire at year’s end and was not granted a US Open wildcard for a farewell appearance, despite receiving wildcards at the Australian Open and Wimbledon and entering the French Open on ranking. He publicly thanked the US Open and New York, describing the city as a place that shaped some of his strongest memories and noting the battles and crowd energy that defined his US Open era; wildcard decisions are made by federations and the USTA, with reciprocity rules affecting such allocations.

McIlroy laments Shinnecock collapse, shifts focus to Open Championship
