Cameron Norrie's Wimbledon journey came to an end in the third round after a tough straight-sets defeat to Alexander Zverev. The match concluded with a thrilling 32-point tiebreak in the final set, ultimately won by Zverev with a scoreline of 6-4, 6-4, 7-6 (15).
Zverev's dominance was evident from the start as he secured the first two sets with scores of 6-4 each. His powerful serves, which included an impressive tally of 15 aces, proved to be a significant challenge for Norrie to overcome.
Despite the loss, Norrie's performance at Wimbledon surpassed that of his fellow British competitors in the men's singles tournament. Notably, he had defeated British No. 1 Jack Draper in the second round, showcasing his resilience and skill on the court.
With this victory, Zverev advances to the round-of-16, moving one step closer to potentially claiming his first Grand Slam title. The 27-year-old German had previously reached the final of the French Open in June, highlighting his strong form and determination in major tournaments.
Meanwhile, British No. 2 Harriet Dart continues her Wimbledon campaign as she prepares to face Wang Xinyu on Court No. 2. Dart's performance will be closely watched by fans and tennis enthusiasts as she aims to progress further in the prestigious tournament.
