Cameron Norrie reached his career-high ranking of 29 earlier this year in July and won his maiden ATP title at the 2021 Los Cabos Open in July after which he broke into the top 30 for the first time. Norrie has been in exceptional form this year, especially on hard court where he won his maiden ATP title last month. He has a win-loss record of 36-15 and 16-8 on hard court.

Karen reached a career-high ranking of 8 in July 2019 after reaching the quarterfinals of the 2019 French Open and has won four ATP singles titles, including the 2018 Paris Masters title. Khachanov came into Wimbledon after a terrible outing at Mallorca Open. However, the way he started off at the grass-court grand slam depicted the kind of talent he is.

He then continued this form into the Olympics, where he reached the final and eventually lost to Alexander Zverev.

Cameron Norrie Vs Karen Khachanov: Prediction

Karen Khachanov will be at the Rogers Cup 2021
Karen Khachanov will be weary considering the conditions he had to play through in Tokyo

Both come into the clash with great form on their side and Khachanov will be more confident considering he came off the Tokyo Olympics with a silver medal to his name and so there can be no clear favourite for this one but expect Norrie to be the much fresher player on court and that could work out in his favour.

Prediction: Norrie to win a tight 3 setter.
