"That was unbelievable" - Norrie amazed by his own performance against Alcaraz

Cameron Norrie emerged victorious from a crazy match against Carlos Alcaraz in Cincinnati moving into the semi-final.

The match lasted over three hours and it saw Norrie throw away a win before coming back to secure an incredible victory. He won the opening set in a close tiebreak before losing a 4-1 lead in the 2nd set to lose the set and go into a decider. Norrie trailed 1-3 in the decider but fought back to win it and said after:

"That was unbelievable. Credit to Carlos. I was up a set and a break, 4-1, and I kind of lost a little bit of vision. I was thinking a little bit too much about the finish line rather than focussing on how I was winning points and I honestly got a little bit tight and he raised his level, didn't give me anything."

Norrie showed off his tremendous fitness in the final set leaving Alcaraz tired after many rallies. He himself wanted to stay tough and he certainly did:

"I just wanted to hang tough with him and I think the only place I had him better was the legs and the physicality. So I was just trying to make every rally as physical as I could and make it tough for him to finish points."
