«I Can´t Spell Stricker Without Trick.»
The boy from the Central Plateau near Bern became world-famous for his singing. Because anyone who is cool enough to sing along to Whitney Houston’s «I Wanna Dance With Somebody» at the top of his voice during the final change of ends in the most important US tennis tournament, instead of staring doggedly ahead like their opponent – has won hands down, at least in the ‘currency’ that is virality. Of course, it helped that Dominic Stricker’s good mood carried him into another round. However, what counts most for fans: a new Swiss star could be rising in the tennis world. And, at last, about to fill the gap left by a certain player from the Basel region, at least on the court. Because as has become clear since, Dominic Stricker especially enjoys playing on hard courts, even with no music at all.
