vCameron Norrie and Holger Rune are scheduled to face each other in the quarterfinal round of the 2022 ATP Stockholm Open on October 21.
After recuperating from COVID, Cameron Norrie gave a lacklustre effort in his maiden game. Against the out-of-sorts Aslan Karatsev, who beat the Brit for the Most Improved Player of the Year award in 2021, he twice failed to serve out the opening set and fell behind in the following two sets by a break. The British No. 1 had a difficult last several weeks, and this is undoubtedly his most challenging part of an otherwise brilliant season. He dropped two of his three Davis Cup matches, was defeated by Taylor Fritz in front of the home crowd in his lone Laver Cup singles encounter, and was forced to withdraw from the ATP Seoul and Tokyo events due to COVID.
Holger Rune defeated South American clay court players Thiago Monteiro and Cristian Garin with ease, winning 7-5 6-2 and 7-6 6-1 respectively to secure his spot in the quarterfinals in Stockholm. The Dane had a four-match losing streak against lefties going into this week’s first round matchup with Thiago Monteiro, two of which came against Cameron Norrie. In his most recent two matches on indoor hard courts, the former Boys’ French Open winner made it to the quarterfinals. He lost a three-set match against Alexander Bublik in Metz last month and defeated Ilya Ivashka in Sofia, where he came in second place behind Marc-Andrea Huesler, the underdog.
