Cameron Norrie ousted by Tommy Paul at Indian Wells

Cameron Norrie's campaign at Indian Wells ended in the third round with a straight-sets loss to 10th-seed Tommy Paul, marking his second consecutive early exit from the tournament. Norrie, who won the event in 2021, struggled with serving errors, contributing to his defeat with a total of five double faults. Despite showing some resilience in the second set, where he rallied from 4-2 down to level at 4-4, he ultimately succumbed to Paul's aggressive play. This loss leaves Jack Draper as the only remaining British player in the men's draw. Norrie's ranking has slipped to 77, following a challenging season marred by injury and inconsistent performance. Paul's victory advances him to the next round, where he will face either Daniil Medvedev or Alex Michelsen.
