The young Serbian Miomir Kecmanovic will square off against the British No. 1 Cameron Norrie in the round of 64 of the Paris Masters.
Miomir Kecmanovic
The 23-year-old has had some decent results to show for his efforts this season. However, a title has eluded him so far. One of the standout moments for Kecmanovic this season, came in the Australian Open when he reached the fourth round of a major for the first time in his career. Following an exit in the round of 16 of the Argentina Open, Kecmanovic was ousted in the quarterfinals in five consecutive tournaments. At the BMW Open, he made it to the semis. He also reached the semis at the Los Cabos Open.
The youngster comes into the Paris Masters on the back of an exit in the round of 16 at the Basel Open. He was destroyed by a red-hot Felix Auger-Aliassime. Last year at the Paris Masters, Kecmanovic made it to the main draw after advancing from the qualifiers. He was ousted by Gael Monfils in the first round.
Cameron Norrie
The world No. 13 has bagged two titles this season. His first title win came in the Delray Beach Open where he defeated Reilly Opelka in the final. Norrie won his second title of the season at the Lyon Open. The rub of the green did not go Norrie’s way in the finals in the Mexican Open and the Los Cabos Open.
The 27-year-old comes into the tournament on the back of an exit in the round of 16 at the Vienna Open. He lost to Marcos Giron in straight sets. Last year at the Paris Masters, Norrie lost to Taylor Fritz in the round of 16.
Head-to-Head and Prediction
The head-to-head scoreline currently stands at 1-0 in favor of Norrie. He defeated Kecmanovic in the 2020 St. Petersburg Open in three sets.
Prediction: Cameron Norrie to win in straight sets.
