Cameron Norrie preparing for Argentina Open final after straight sets win

Cameron Norrie secured his place in the clay court Argentina Open final after beating Juan Pablo Varillas on Saturday.

Norrie went into the tournament ranked second and beat the Peruvian 7-6 (5) 6-4, saving two break points in the final game to wrap up the victory in an hour and 54 minutes.

“It’s going to be a tough one for sure, regardless of who I play,” Norrie said, reported by the ATP website.

“I lost a tough final in Auckland, so hopefully I can get some good feelings back tomorrow in the final.”

Norrie will face top seed Carlos Alcaraz, who continued his stellar return from injury with a 6-2 6-2 demolition of countryman Bernabe Zapata Miralles.

Daniil Medvedev secured a comprehensive straight sets victory in under an hour and a half to beat Grigor Dimitrov and reach the final of the ABN AMRO Open in Rotterdam.

Medvedev won 6-1 6-2, converting six of 13 break points in the process and set up a final against Jannik Sinner.

“It was an amazing match,” the victorious 27-year-old said. “The score (looks) easy, but the match was not.

“I felt physically like I was playing five sets. (There were) some amazing rallies.”

Sinner beat wildcard Tallon Griekspoor in straight sets 7-5 7-6 (5) to set up a meeting with the Russian.
