It's strange that two players with so many matches and tournaments under their belts like Jannik Sinner and Cameron Norrie have never faced each other in an official match. All that will change next Tuesday when they meet for the first time at the Mutua Madrid Open 2026, in a round of 16 where the British player aims to cause an upset. In comments to Sky Sports, Norrie talked about his upcoming duel and left an interesting remark: it's not strange to see Jannik on the other side of the net.

"It's crazy that we've never faced each other despite being on the circuit for five years. I'm looking forward to it, although every time we face off in practice, he crushes me, skins me (laughs). Right now, he's perhaps the most confident player on the whole circuit, but I'm going to give him a fight, play my tennis, and focus on every ball in front of me. It will be very tough, but I'm eager for us to face each other for the first time."
