British number two Norrie withdraws from US Open

British number two Cameron Norrie has withdrawn from the US Open because of the forearm injury which also prevented him playing in the Olympics.

Norrie, 28, says he plans to take some rest and recharge, and added on Instagram that he “can’t wait to get back to competing”.

With Andy Murray’s retirement, Jack Draper and Dan Evans are currently the only British men in the main draw in New York.

The final Grand Slam of the year starts on 26 August.
