"Obviously no.1" says coach of Cameron Norrie about his future goal after meteoric rise in 2021

Cameron Norrie is enjoying the best season of his life in 2021 having put forward a tremendous amounts of good performances excelling especially during clay season which is unusual for a player that did not grew up on the surface. His coach Facundo Lugones met Norrie during his College years and he recalled that time:

"He was pretty casual, a very social kid. He got along well with everyone and was just very friendly, but pretty competitive. There was not much structure in his life, everything was kind of random."

Lugones assisted his college tema as a coach and he explained what drew Norrie to him:

"I wouldn’t say I helped, but I tried to be a good role model and set a good example for him. He didn’t like to be told, but he really liked when people did the right things and he would copy that."

Speaking on how the relationship between the two changed in the past four years he said:

"It’s a little more professional and mature now. When it comes to working, setting goals, having tough conversations and getting ready for tournaments, it’s very serious. When we’re off the court at the hotel and talking about any other aspect of life, it’s like friends."

Lugones also spoke a little bit about their goals in the future and he said:

"One of them at the beginning of the year was to finish Top 30, and we’re on track for that. Then we need to keep pushing those goals further and further. If he finishes Top 30, next year will be Top 20, Top 15 to then Top 10 and obviously No. 1. That’s the goal of every single tennis player."
