Norrie vs Ruud preview

Cameron Norrie's consistency is impressive. The British number one has been around the top 20 in the world for four years. A semi-final appearance at Wimbledon in 2022 his best major run thus far.

The 28-year-old's resilience is no less instructive, coming from two sets down to beat Giulio Zeppieri 6-4 in the decider in a marathon second round match on Thursday. A baseliner who tries to take the ball on the rise, Norrie's hits his backhand very flat which has a habit of skidding quickly through opponents' defenses. Aggression is the way forward, especially against an opponent he is yet to beat in three previous attempts.

Casper Ruud's form may have slipped slightly from his annus mirabilis 2022 high, in which which he was ranked world number two, but the Norwegian has started the new year in fine form.

Unbeaten at the United Cup warm-up tournament, the 25-year-old has started strongly at the Australian Open 2024 in dispatching Albert Ramos-Vinolas for the loss of five games in the first round before showing all his resolve in outlasting home favorite Max Purcell in a final-set tiebreak in the second. The three-time major finalist is a man of few errors, forcing his opponents to hit through him to win.
