Great Britain’s Cameron Norrie knocked out of Erste Bank Open in last 16 by Matteo Berrettini | Tennis News


Cameron Norrie’s hopes of a first appearance in an ATP Tour quarter-final since this year’s Wimbledon were dashed by Matteo Berrettini at the Erste Bank Open in Vienna.

British player Norrie lost 7-6 (8-6) 6-7 (11-9) 6-4 to Italy’s former Wimbledon finalist Berrettini in the last 16 having upset world No 15 Andrey Rublev in the previous round.

Norrie had four chances to lead 5-1 in the opening set before eventually losing in a tie-break, while he then saved a match point in the second-set tie-break to force a decider before being beaten in three hours and 16 minutes.

Berrettini will now meet Alex de Minaur in the last eight, with the Australian beating home wild card Filip Misolic 6-4 6-4 in Austria.
