Norrie Beats Jarry Amid Wimbledon Ritual Controversy

Cameron Norrie advanced to the Wimbledon quarter-finals after defeating Nicolas Jarry in a five-set match, becoming the last British player remaining in the tournament. The contest was marked by controversy when Jarry accused Norrie of gamesmanship due to his prolonged ball-bouncing routine before serves, which Jarry believed disrupted his rhythm. Jarry raised his concerns with the umpire, who stated that intervention was only possible if the behavior was intentional. The incident has sparked wider debate about the fine line between gamesmanship and legitimate pre-serve rituals in tennis. Despite the tension, Norrie maintained composure and resilience to secure victory. Top seeds Carlos Alcaraz and Aryna Sabalenka also advanced in the tournament.
