Match Preview

Four-time US Open champion Novak Djokovic continues his quest for a fifth title at Flushing Meadows on Friday night at Arthur Ashe Stadium. The Serbian’s consistency on the ATP Tour throughout his career makes him a solid win contender, but he will be aiming to end his two-year wait for Grand Slam glory.

Djokovic has been at his dominant best in the previous two rounds, eliminating a pair of unseeded American players. However, he was forced to show his powers of recovery in the previous round after dropping the opening set against Zachary Svajda. But, Djokovic would dominate the remaining three sets, dropping just seven games.

Cameron Norrie has enjoyed a fine return to form in Grand Slam events this year, reaching the fourth-round at the French Open for the first time in his career. The Brit’s best showing at the US Open came back in 2022 when reaching the fourth round.

The 30-year-old has battled to excellent wins in each of the last two rounds, which includes a recent success against Francisco Comesana, which featured three tie-breaks. Norrie registered eight aces in that win, and he recorded an impressive 170 winners.
