Norrie sets aims heading into 2023: "Be top five and top three and then aiming towards number one in the world"

Cameron Norrie plans on becoming a tougher player to face next year after having a rather good year in 2022.

Norrie would have probably ended up in the top 10 had his Wimbledon semi-final points counted but the British player generally had a really fine season overall. He hopes to be even better next year as he admitted in a talk recently.

Norrie looked back on his year calling it great:

“I obviously had a great year last year and I wanted to back that up and I felt like I did that and I played a few finals and won a couple of titles, but the highlight was Wimbledon and making the semi-finals there. Especially at home with everyone supporting me, my friends or family all there at probably the biggest tournament in the world. So that was very cool.”

Very dedicated to his craft, Norrie is keen on improving plenty of stuff in his game as he believes many can be improved:

“I think there’s still a lot of things I can improve on and I think I can work on my general ball speed and hitting the ball a bit harder on the forehand side and hitting my spots better on the serve. And I think when I’m playing my best is when I’m coming forward more and more. So I think I can work on that area and ultimately keeping all the execution levels up. I feel like I can be even tougher player to play against.”

His goal is to be in the top 10 consistently:

“As a player, you want to tick that box, and you want to be inside the top 10."
