French Open champion Stan Wawrinka has revealed that he has put the pink tartan shorts that he wore en route to Roland Garros glory into "retirement".
Wawrinka's choice of clothing drew as much attention as his breath-taking displays on the clay and he drew something of a cult following as a result.
But with Wimbledon upon us, and the required all-white attire, Wawrinka has decided it's time to hang up the shorts that more resembled pyjamas than sport wear.
"It's a strange world," Wawrinka told the Telegraph ahead of this week's Queen Club's Championships. "It's a funny story, because now they have sold out.
"Even though it's something that no one likes. Now they are retired. They won the French Open, so they deserve that retirement."
Wawrinka faces a mouth-watering tie at Queen's, in west London, against Australian upstart Nick Kyrgios, but not only does he describe grass as "the toughest surface for me", he must also overcome the emotional aftermath of winning his second grand slam.
"After doing a lot of press and pictures in Paris, I came back home late on Tuesday," he said. "Then I was spending time with my family, with my daughter.
"I did celebrate Sunday night but nothing since I am back home. I was really tired. It's always an up and down feeling after so much happening. So much emotion.
"After Melbourne everything was new. It was my first grand slam and I didn't know what was going to happen afterwards. Everybody was ¬talking, telling me it would be a different life. But this time I gave everything I had because I had to beat Roger [Federer] and then [Jo-Wilfried] Tsonga in the semis and then the biggest challenge in the final, beating Novak [Djokovic], who was the big favourite. So I was maybe more tired than after the Australian Open."
Wawrinka takes on Kyrgios at Queen's on Tuesday, with Great Britain's James Ward among those playing on the opening day.
