Cameron Norrie, the British tennis ace, is currently participating in the Grand Slam of his nation. He is the last British star left in the tournament, currently. As players such as the three-time Grand Slam champion Andy Murray and England’s rising star Emma Raducanu took the initial round exit.

Therefore, British tennis fans’ support and hopes regarding his run have increased several folds. So much so that the royals have also got invested.

Prince William’s complete involvement in the match

Recently, Prince William came to cheer for the last Brit standing in the quarterfinals of the championships. And in the 100th season of the Wimbledon Championships, he let his emotions take control of him. He gave an expression that came out as a response to the intense battle between Cameron Norrie and David Goffin and will linger around for decades. In the five-set long match, when the Brit started losing his grip a little, a frustrated prince Williams said, “No, no, no. F**k it.”

Though his nerves must have calmed down as the Brit at the end of the one hour 35 minutes long match came out victorious. Norrie got the better of the former world No.7 David Goffin in Court-1 by 3-6, 7-5, 2-6, 6-3, 7-5.

While Cameron Norrie will play his first Wimbledon semifinals. Djokovic will be eyeing his fourth consecutive title in the Grand Slam of grass. Further, speaking about their head-to-head records. The Brit has only met the 20 times Grand Slam champion once.

He clashed with the Serb in the indoor hard courts of last year’s Nitto ATP Finals hosted by Italy. There, the former world no.1 made Norrie pack his bags in straight sets of 6-2, 6-1. However, the top seed Djokovic who was riding high on monstrous form last year and claimed five titles has won only one this year.

Therefore, it can be said that ATP no.3 may not be as strong and sharp as he was last season. In fact, in the quarterfinals, he lost the initial two sets. Thus there are chances if fans such as Prince William cheer him enough, the ninth seed might win a ticket to the finals against Djokovic.
