Although Cameron Norrie was born and brought up in New Zealand, he plays as a tennis professional for Great Britain. Cameron turned professional in the year 2017 and since then is in the world of praise and criticism.

Every sportsperson, as soon as they rise to a position of expectation, witnesses both the extreme ends of a fan’s emotions. They usually let go of comments made to them. However, at times, players can’t help but react. Something of that sort happened with Norrie this week.

Cameron Norrie Lashes Out

The 26-year-old has out-muscled some of the greatest players of the generation. He is currently on the elite list of top 10 players in ATP, and also has been the no.1 tennis player representing Britain since 2021. However, no amount of achievement can stop a hate comment and that’s what’s happened to him. Norrie was stunned by a comment calling his game horrible. To which he responded by saying, “would you take it and be ranked 10?”

The probable source of the hate comment could be Norrie consistently failing to reach the last rounds of any recent tournament. However, nothing justifies a comment so harsh.

Norrie’s Game This Year

Norrie didn’t give a great start to the year as he was kicked out of the ATP cup by this year’s Indian Wells champion, Taylor Fritz, in the group stage only. He later got thrashed by American Korda in the initial round of the Australian Open. However, he found his lost form in Rotterdam and clawed his way up to the last eight. Thereafter, he outclassed almost every opponent in Mexican Open and claimed victory over them in straight sets. Although Nadal snatched the title out of his hands in the finals. But he presented his fans with some splendid matches.

Though riding high on form, his gameplay declined yet again, in the summer double. Although he gave an attendance in the quarterfinals of Indian Wells, he was thrown out of the Miami Open in round of 16. However, in his defense, he lost to Rudd, who later competed in finals of Miami.
