Andy Murray praise Cameron Norrie after his achievement and claims he is a perfect example for others.

British Tennis player Andy Murray has stated that Cameron Norrie is a great example to other tennis players.

Norrie won the Indian Wells tournament recently and overtook Dan Evans as the new British No 1.

He is now ranked 16th, having started the season at 71 with an eye on the season-ending ATP Finals a strong possibility.

Former world No 1 Murray said: “I’d be lying if I said that I called that to be honest. However, I have spent a decent amount of time around him and practised with him quite a lot and he works extremely hard.

“I think he’s a great example for not just British players but all tennis players to look at and go, if you put the effort in day in, day out and properly dedicate yourself to the sport, have an attitude like he does, it can take you a long, long way.

“It was obviously a phenomenal achievement, but I think maybe the season that he’s having is more impressive than that one week.

“Every week he’s winning matches, he’s played six finals, and this year he’s looking like he’s going to win more matches on the tour than he had in every season that he’d had beforehand combined.

“So that shows you how much of an improvement he’s made. I knew he was good, but to be top 20 in the world and pushing for a spot in the tour finals is an incredible effort.”
