Cameron Norrie lost to Alexander Zverev in the men's singles at Wimbledon this year.
Cameron Norrie, British number two has withdrawn from the upcoming US Open due to a persistent forearm injury, which also kept him from participating in the Olympics. Norrie, 28, announced his decision via Instagram, where he expressed his disappointment but also his determination to recover. He plans to take some time to rest and recharge before returning to competitive play.
Norrie’s withdrawal is a significant setback for British tennis fans, as the US Open, starting on August 26, marks the final Grand Slam tournament of the year. His absence leaves a gap in the British representation at the tournament. With Andy Murray’s recent retirement, Norrie’s withdrawal means that currently, only Jack Draper and Dan Evans will represent Britain in the main draw in New York.
Cameron Norrie has been a prominent figure in British tennis, and his injury is unfortunate timing given the end of the Grand Slam season. His injury woes highlight the physical demands placed on professional athletes and the importance of managing health and recovery. As Norrie focuses on his rehabilitation, fans and experts alike will be watching closely to see how he returns to form in the coming months.
For now, Draper and Evans will carry the hopes of British tennis at the US Open and Norrie’s return will be eagerly anticipated as he works to regain his fitness and competitive edge.
