On-Court Reaction from Cameron Norrie
“Always a battle when I play Lorenzo. I have a lot of respect for him. He’s so passionate about tennis, and he showed that.
He came to fight, and we both fought hard today. I was really happy with my level. In the third set, even though he was fighting, I was really playing free, and I had a lot of support from the crowd, especially up there, which really helped and got me through the match in the end.
I was able to stay calm, and honestly I enjoyed this match probably the most this week, so it was nice. It was nice to get better and better as the match went on.
I was a bit nervous at the start, which affected my serve, but he was tough. He served well, he’s a difficult player, and I had to find a solution and I was able to.”
Summary
Cameron Norrie's tenacity and growing confidence this season have culminated in him reaching his first ATP final of 2025, demonstrating his ability to overcome challenges and perform under pressure.
