Moutet's theatrical continue to irritate the h*ll out of me (there's a similarity with Jack Draper, there - but at least Jack is a fair bit younger and should grow out of it a bit).

Great stamina and fitness against from Cam - it wasn't easy.

Well done Cam, great win again. A proper little clay courter, even with his ugly cramped backhand!!

L16: (1) Pierre-Hugues Herbert & Nicolas Mahut (FRA/FRA) CR 26 (20+6) defeated Cameron Norrie & Jonny O'Mara CR 245 (178+67) by 1 & 1

Predictable, I think - nasty draw.

oh dear, doubles gone a bit pear shaped today

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

Norrie doing great - just taken the first set 6-3, against Thiem

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

And now a break in the second !

It's true Thiem is not at his all-time best, but Cam really does seem to have this dirt stuff sorted....

He is so solid right now. Hope he can see this one out.

Cam is playing fantastic here, Thiem cant get past him and a lot of errors as well. 4-1 double break and a set up now.

Looking ahead here its likely going to be Sinner, Khachanov then Tsitsipas to take the title. Crazy strong field and draw for a 250 event.

L16: Cameron Norrie WR 49 defeated (WC/1) Dominic Thiem (AUT) WR 4 by 3 & 2

Rinderknech (LL) or, more likely, Sinner (6), in the quarter-final.

That was easy!

Thought I'd just check the score and could hardly believe my eyes!
Well done Cam - huge win
