The British tennis star continues to make strong progress up the tennis rankings. Here we take a look at the tennis star in more detail, including who Cameron Norrie’s girlfriend Louise Jacobi is.
British number one Cameron Norrie plays David Goffin in the quarterfinals at Wimbledon today (July 5).
The 26-year-old won his first first Masters 1000 title at Indian Wells in 2021, beating Nikoloz Basilashvili in the final. In 2022, at the Delray Beach Open, Norrie dropped just one set en route to his third career singles title, defeating Reilly Opelka in the final.
Norrie then defeated Alex Molčan to win the singles tennis title at the 2022 ATP Lyon Open. He reached his career-high singles ranking of world No. 10 on 4 April 2022.

Where is Norrie from?
Norrie was born in Johannesburg, South Africa, to Scottish father David and Welsh mother Helen. His parents were both microbiologists.
Norrie moved around a lot as a child including to Auckland, New Zealand, in 1998.
In 2011 when he was 16 years old, he moved to London where he lived for three years before attending Texas Christian University in Fort Worth from 2014 to 2017.
After university he was based in Putney, south London, for a while but, when the pandemic hit, moved back to New Zealand where his parents live.
Junior career and switch to British nationality
As a junior Norrie competed for New Zealand, reaching no.10 in the world.
However, because of a lack of funding by Tennis NZ he switched to Britain aged 16 – the nationality of his parents.
He competed at all the Junior Grand Slams in 2013 but only won one match – at the Boys Australian Open.
