Indian Wells, Oct 17: Great Britain’s Cameron Norrie dismissed Grigor Dimitrov of Bulgaria 6-2, 6-4 to make his maiden ATP Masters 1000 final at the BNP Paribas Open here on Sunday.
The 26-year-old Londoner broke Dimitrov at the beginning of both sets at the Indian Wells Tennis Garden to claim his 46th match win of year and set up a title clash with Nikoloz Basilashvili of Georgia.
“It was the biggest match of my career, following on from yesterday, which was the biggest match,” Norrie said. “There was even more pressure today. I came out and played really physical. Grigor was maybe a little tired from the other matches, but he fought hard and made it physical at the start of the second set, which wasn’t easy,” said Norrie.
Norrie notched his 46th match win of the year and is now within reach of his second title of the season to back up his triumph in Los Cabos. Georgia’s Nikoloz Basilashvili is one win away from the biggest title of his career after defeating Taylor Fritz of the US. (IANS)
