Guessing Norris will get Monfils (#21) and then Vesily (#82) from Czech.Alastair Gray lost to Broom this morning 6-7 (5-7), 4-6 so that's it for Heraklion3, but not to worry, there's a 4th tourney there next week.
Cam Norrie will lead Team GB in the Davis Cup Finals, starting tomorrow in Innsbruck where the Brits will take on France on Saturday and Czechia on Sunday. It'll be in front of nobody because COVID is spiking there, but will be available on TV. Cam will play #1 singles in both ties.
Looks like it's GB vs. GermanyAfter Dan Evans lost the opening match for Team GB against Czechia at the Davis Cup Finals in Innsbruck, it was up to Cam Norrie to save Britain's bacon with a W at #1 singles. And he came through, with a 3-setter against Jiri Lechecka; setting the stage for a deciding doubles match, which Salisbury/Skupski provided the necessary W. So the Brits have won their Group and have advanced to the quarterfinals, which will be against either Germany or Serbia on Tuesday. The quarters will remain in Innsbruck - if they win, the semis will be in Madrid. If it's Serbia, that'll mean another match between Norrie and Djoker, who is the Serb #1 (in addition to being a GOAT candidate and the world #1). If it's Germany, it won't be Zverev because he's not playing. If Germany beats Austria later today, it'll be the Germans.
That's great for Stalder! This is his 2nd tour title in doubles and is making him somewhat of a doubles specialist. I've been looking for his results, but he hadn't played singles since late August/early September, but evidently, much more active in doubles.Reese Stalder and partner Gijs Brouwer won the doubles tournament at last week's ATP Challenger in Puerto Vallarta. Reese's ATP doubles rank went up 50 points to a career-high 267.
Clearly you are unfamiliar. Tennis is played on a court. Broadway shows are played on a stage. Some of them quite large.When can we see Cam play on a big stage next? I am unfamiliar with tennis
The Aussie will be starting in 3 weeks or so. He's probably in New Zealand for the summer and will likely play a warm-up or two in the next few weeks either in Auckland or somewhere in Australia. The Aussie will be a good test for him - as the 12th ranked player, he'll probably get a good draw and won't have to play a highly-ranked player until the 4th round.When can we see Cam play on a big stage next?

Well that’s a tough startCam's first action this year will be at the ATP Cup, an event staged across all Australia in several cities. He opens up with Sascha Zverev tomorrow and will then play Felix Auger-Alliasime on the 4th and Taylor Fritz on the 5th. He'll be representing Team Great Britain again as the #1 player and he thinks that players are going to be "hunting for [him]" because he's now ranked so high.
