Cameron
Norrie withdrew from the Cincinnati Open just a few days after missing the
Canadian Open. The Brit No. 2 hasn't had a good month, as injuries have kept
him off the court.
Recently,
he withdrew from his first-round match at the Olympic Games before facing
Tallon Griekspoor. According to the LTA, Norrie was not in a condition to
participate in the draw due to an injury, although they did not specify the
nature of the injury.
Norrie out of Cincinnati
Earlier
this week, Norrie withdrew from the Canadian Open and was replaced by
Australian James Duckworth. Although his return was expected in Cincinnati, it
was announced that he withdrew from the draw of the next Masters 1000, just two
weeks before the start of the US Open.
Norrie was
removed from the Cincinnati entry list, and Miomir Kecmanovic took his place.
The 28-year-old Brit is still listed for the US Open, although this could
change, considering that there is still no clarity on what type of injury is
affecting the current world No. 47.
Recently,
Norrie mentioned that he was fighting to compete with Jack Draper for the Brit
No. 1 spot and trying to fill the gap left by Andy Murray's retirement: "I
would love that to happen, and it’s definitely possible," said Norrie.
"I know Jack has an incredibly high level of tennis, but we’ve got to get
the most out of ourselves to make it happen. He has matured so much, and I
would like to be competing at the highest level of the game against each
other."

- Anti-Social media has no guardrails... and the Lowest Common Denominators are free to demean and denounce anyone, any time; and obviously do so on a daily basis. Why? Because thus far, given the lack of oversight (much less control) over these public immorally bankrupt entities, there is little-to-no possibility of legal repercussion.

Unless this woman is running for office she doesn't get -- nor deserve -- the opportunity to literally reinvent what she plainly said the first time. She's no longer a tennis player, does not represent the sport, and should therefor refrain from meaningless drivel and snottyass remarks about her former colleagues.mandoist11-09-2024
- How is it not clear to pro tennis Elitists in charge that flooding the sport with more and more tournaments is NOT the answer? Such decisions made through PURE GREED disguised as "offering more up & coming players a chance to compete". This sport is, at the very foundation, a Business. Any corporate entity should know by now that introducing too many 'franchises' to a limited market is counterproductive to say the very least? And let us not forget the Top Athletes cannot be everywhere week-to-week no matter how much money the tourneys throw at them. Therefor you get a situation such as the US Open missing out on the Best-of-the-Best. Simple economics -- and definitely common sense -- seems to be lost on the WTA/ATP 'experts' in the offices.mandoist11-09-2024
