Gregoire Barrere Knocks Cameron Norrie Out in The Second Round as Dan Evans Also Loses
Posted : 11 April 2023
Dan Evans has now dropped six straight games after losing to Italian Lorenzo Sonego, while Miami Open champion Cameron Norrie, who fell in straight sets to France's Gregoire Barrere in the second round, has now lost six straight games overall.
Cameron Norrie suffered a shock defeat in the second round of the Miami Open when he was beaten in straight sets by France's Gregoire Barrere.
The British No 1 has enjoyed his visits to Miami in recent years, with the 27-year-old winning the title in 2021 and reaching the quarter-finals last year.
But he was dominated by Barrere on Saturday, with the world No 65 securing a 6-3 6-2 victory in an hour and 10 minutes.
After trading early holds, Barrere was able to strike first by breaking Norrie's serve in the eighth game and the Briton could only offer mild resistance, with the Frenchman cruising home to set up a third-round meeting with Christopher Eubanks.
The American qualifier recorded the biggest win of his career so far as the world No 119 knocked out 17th-seeded Croatian Borna Coric 3-6 6-4 6-2.
