Cameron Norrie pulled off a major win for himself and British tennis by stunning Rafael Nadal at the United Cup with a comeback win in three sets.
Norrie has been playing pretty strong tennis to start the new season and he continued that at the United Cup. Nadal put up a good fight but ran out of gas towards the end as Norrie broke his game down with his annoying style that saw Nadal lose patience a little bit. He started well taking the first set but his game got worse over time.
By beating him, Norrie became only the second British player in history to defeat him. Obviously, the only one who did it before Norri was Andy Murray who did it a couple of times.
Cameron Norrie becomes only the second British singles player to defeat Rafael Nadal during the Spaniard’s 20 years on the ATP tour (the other is obviously Andy Murray).
Cam can do ✌️ @cam_norrie notches his biggest career win by ranking, 3-6 6-3 6-4 over World No.2 Rafael Nadal. #UnitedCup
