Cameron Norrie ended the 2025 season with a real flourish by finishing inside the top 30 of the ATP Tour rankings.

The British star bounced back from an early season stumble to reach the fourth round of Roland Garros and the quarter-finals of Wimbledon.

Norrie ended the season in style by defeating Carlos Alcaraz on his way to the third round of the Paris Masters.

The British star outlined big goals for the 2026 season, but he has reportedly suffered an injury in the off-season.

Cameron Norrie suffers an injury in the off-season

On X, South American journalist Gonzalo Ferreyr provided a worrying update on Norrie’s progress while working in Argentina.

The ESPN writer said: “Cameron Norrie was injured during his preseason in Buenos Aires and withdrew from the Road To Australia.”

Norrie had already been confirmed for the ASB Classic in Auckland, which acts as one of his home tournaments as he grew up in New Zealand.

The British star was also expected to play the Australian Open, but the first Grand Slam of the year now looks in doubt for Norrie.

It is currently unclear what the injury is, or how long Norrie will be out of action, but it’s a huge blow for the world number 27.

Cameron Norrie’s injury woes continue

Norrie managed to play most of the season injury free in 2025, which was a major boost for the Brit after a few years of difficulties.

The star missed three months of the season in 2024 over the summer due to an unfortunate forearm injury.

Who do you think should receive a wild card for the 2026 Australian Open?

Players to receive a wild card for the 2026 Australian Open so far are: James Duckworth, Emerson Jones, Zarina Diyas, Patrick Kypson, and Elizabeth Mandlik.  

There are still TEN spots up for grabs across the men’s and women’s game for the first Grand Slam of the year.

Norrie also suffered from illness at the beginning of 2025, which he touted as the reason for his first round loss to Matteo Berrettini at the Australian Open.

After finding some impressive form at the backend of 2025, this new injury concern is a true gut-punch for Norrie.
