ATP Cincinnati, Carlos Alcaraz also out: Norrie to stunner
Spaniard fails to advance to semifinal: Norrie wins 7-6, 6-7, 6-4
Spectacle in Cincinnati. In a match that delighted the spectators present, Cameron Norrie shows off his best version by breaking down the resistance of the never tame Carlos Alcaraz in a battle that lasted over three hours and was full of twists and turns. The Western#38;Southern Open once again proves to be a harbinger of twists and turns, as on the night Felix Auger-Aliassime, already the executioner of Jannik Sinner, also surrendered to Borna Coric in two sets.
After three losses in as many confrontations with the talented Spaniard, victory came for the British tennis player, who will enter the world’s top 10 from Monday. The match against Alcaraz was full of twists and turns and spectacular exchanges: cooler Norrie to handle the important points, with the Murcia native converting only 2 of the 13 break points he had. Again, as in the Umag final lost to Jannik Sinner, there are many regrets for the young Spanish talent.
