Phew, that was close. Formula One fans almost got a sequel to Groundhog Day that nobody wanted to see on Sunday.

Stan Wawrinka, an uninvited guest at the Big Four gala, crashed the party, again. But this time, Wawrinka, aka “Stanimal,” may have broken the crew up for good. Wawrinka defeated Novak Djokovic, 4-6, 6-4, 6-3, 6-4, at the 2015 French Open. His win over Djokovic calls into question the Big Four’s dominance. Of course, the reign of the Big Four is indisputable. Between...
