July 23, 2021 9:30 pm EDT

Top seeded Cameron Norrie of Great Britain will face third seeded American Taylor Fritz in the Semi-Finals of the 2021 Los Cabos Open. The match is scheduled to be played on Friday July 23rd, 2021.

An exciting match is expected here in the Semi-Final of the Los Cabos Open between two very evenly matched players. Top seed Cameron Norrie will play third seed Taylor Fritz for a spot in Sunday’s Final. Both men have played great tennis so far this week and will like their chances of winning here. Who will have the last laugh and advance to the Final?

Cameron Norrie has been having a great 2021 season so far, and is the top seed here at the 2021 Los Cabos Open. The Brit has already reached three Finals for the year, but has failed to win any of them. He will be desperate to win the title this week, and it seems like the stars are aligning for him here, as the draw has opened up nicely and many of the top players are at the Olympics. He has reached the Semis here without dropping a set, defeating Elias Ymer and Ernesto Escobedo without breaking a sweat. This will be the first time that he will be tested here in Mexico, as he faces the experienced Taylor Fritz for a spot in the Final. His game style matches up well with that of the American, and as the more consistent of the two he will be liking his chances here.

Taylor Fritz is ranked 7 spots below his Semi-Final opponent Cameron Norrie at #37 and is the third seed here at the Los Cabos Open. He has been having a decent season so far, but has lacked consistency and will hope to bring some of that to his season here. After being tested by Illya Marchenko in the First Round he recovered to beat fellow American Steve Johnson in straight sets in the Quarters. His big serve is his major weapon, along with his powerful forehand and he will need those to be clicking here against the in-form Cameron Norrie. While the Brit is considered the slight favorite, Fritz has a lot of experience at this level and has a very strong chance of winning here.

I expect a very intense battle here between two very evenly matched players. Both men have found form at the right time and have a good chance of winning here. Cameron Norrie will be seeking his first ever ATP title after coming close three times this year, with Taylor Fritz aiming to win his second. All things considered, I am going with the American to win this one. While Norrie has been the more consistent player this season, Fritz has the higher upside, and has the firepower needed to hit through the Brit. If he can keep his error count low, I think he should win this match in two very tight sets, possibly three.
