Probably it won’t be an easy match for Norrie. After all, Paul is showing a great game here. He is unlikely to slow down. Tommy has all the chances to put up a fight against Norrie.
The tennis players have played four head-to-head encounters. In 3 out of the 4 matches, they have played the maximum number of sets. Nothing is likely to change significantly now. Both opponents approach the battle in excellent playing form.
Norrie reached the fourth round at Wimbledon for the first time. Prior to that, his best result was reaching the third round.
On Friday, as expected, Cameron easily defeated Steve Johnson (6-4, 6-1, 6-0). If in the first set Steve at least put up a fight, in the next two sets he simply capitulated, taking only one game.
Strange as it may seem, his toughest match so far was against Jaume Munar (6-4, 3-6, 5-7, 6-0, 6-2). Norrie only overpowered Jaume in the fifth set.
Three sets were enough for Norrie to beat Pablo Andujar (6-0, 7-6, 6-3) in the first round.
Norrie has won eight of his 11 matches against the players from the USA.
Paul, meanwhile, also made it to the fourth round at Wimbledon for the first time.
In the third round, Tommy defeated Jiri Vesely (6-3, 6-2, 6-2. Unlike Alejandro Davidovich Fokina, the serve of Jiri was not a problem for Paul.
Before that, Paul didn’t give up a single set either. First, Tommy quietly dealt with Fernando Verdasco (6-1, 6-2, 7-6) and then defeated Adrian Mannarino (6-2, 6-4, 6-1).
In June, Paul beat Denis Shapovalov (6-4, 2-6, 6-4) and Stan Wawrinka (6-1, 6-4) in London and stopped Jannik Sinner (6-3, 3-6, 6-3) in Eastbourne.

In 5 of Norrie’s last 6 matches, more than 9.5 games were played in the first set. We offer to bet on “1st Set Games – Over 9.5” with the odds of 1.58.
