Cameron Norrie vs Yi Zhou prediction
Cameron Norrie will bid to continue his resurgence in Chengdu.
The Brit has shown signs of the sort of form that previously propelled him into the world’s top ten in recent months with a run to the third round at the US Open following a quarter-final charge at Wimbledon.
The British number two’s hopes of pushing back into the top 30 will kick off here against a wildcard ranked at 304 in the world.
The 20-year-old Yi Zhou will be playing just his second tour-level match of the year in front of a home crowd and, although he has posted some deep runs at hardcourt events in Challengers of late, this will be a step up in class that he’s unlikely to be able to match for the duration of the contest.
Norrie sheer consistency and durability should make this pretty routine with the world number 34 likely to progress in straight sets.
