Ben Shelton vs. Cameron Norrie Predictions: Will It Be An End For Shelton’s Incredible Run in Cincinnati?

On Thursday, ninth seed Cam Norrie will compete in the third round of the Western & Southern Open against American teenager Ben Shelton.

The British No. 1 on the ATP circuit has had yet another strong season. He has won 39 of 57 games this year, and he has two trophies to his record from Delray Beach and Lyon.

When he advanced to the Wimbledon Championships semifinals in front of his home audience, he even earned a name for himself in the Grand Slams. Novak Djokovic, the eventual winner, defeated him in four sets.

Leading up to the Cincinnati Masters, the No. 11 in the world has maintained his form. In the first round, he defeated rising prodigy Holger Rune in two three-set matches. In the second round, he defeated Andy Murray after falling behind a set.

Ben Shelton is currently competing in the Cincinnati Masters and is having a fantastic season. With appearances in two Challenger Series finals and his first ATP Tour victory in Atlanta, the American seemed to have advanced to a new level during the US summer circuit this year. Shelton dazzled Italian Lorenzo Sonego in the first round of the competition with his strong and aggressive gaming.

But what really got tennis fans' attention was his convincing victory over Casper Ruud, the fifth seed. He defeated the winner of the French Open in straight sets, 6-3, 6-3, to go to his first round of 16 on the circuit.

Cameron Norrie will probably put a stop to Shelton's incredible Cincinnati run with to his steady play, strong forehand, and good tennis IQ.
