Wimbledon 2025 results: Carlos Alcaraz sweeps aside Cameron Norrie after Taylor Fritz beats Karen Khachanov

Norrie’s defeat signals the end of British interest in the Wimbledon singles for another year.

But, when the dust settles on a brutally one-sided result, the 29-year-old left-hander will take positives from his run after a difficult 18 months.

After saving four break points in his opening service game, five-time Grand Slam champion Alcaraz quickly upped his level and wowed the Centre Court crowd with his all-court ability.

With Alcaraz serving strongly, hammering groundstrokes and moving elegantly around the court, 61st-ranked Norrie had little chance of causing a shock.

Norrie, who had been bidding to match his run to the last four in 2022, will regain his place in the world’s top 50 when the ATP rankings are updated next week.
