THE PREDICTION
Cameron Norrie played as well as has in some time against friend and compatriot Dan Evans, beating the British number one in four sets on Tuesday. The world number 69 has the physicality for five-set matches and he has earned a fabulous chance to reach the third round here in his next opponent, Russian qualifier Roman Safiullin. The 23-year-old beat Ilya Ivashka in some assured straight sets, taking six of the 15 break points he made on the Belarusian’s serve but Norrie is a level above here in his current form. Norrie has beaten the likes of Adrian Mannarino, Frances Tiafoe and Tommy Paul in recent weeks to complement his defeat of world number 26 Evans and both players can take a set here in a victory for the Brit.
