Cameron Norrie wins the Challenger event after returning from injury

British number two Cameron Norrie marked his return after a three-month absence through injury with an outright win at the Roanne Challenger event in France.

Norrie withdrew from several tournaments this year – including the US Open – due to an arm injury that also kept him out of the Olympics.

Norrie, the top seed at the Roanne Challenger, defeated French world number 747 Etienne Donnet 6-1 6-2 to advance to the last 16.

This is Norrie’s first event since mid-July at the Nordea Open in Bastad, where he lost 6-4 6-4 to Rafael Nadal in what was Nadal’s first event back from injury.
