British number one Cameron Norrie is poised to play five tournaments over the next six weeks in an attempt to qualify for the ATP Finals.<\/span><\/p>\n The Wimbledon semi-finalist is ranked 11th as things stand in the race to the end-of-season finals in Turin.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n He hopes to push himself into the top eight qualifying spots with strong displays in a packed upcoming schedule.<\/span><\/p>\n “I think I’m knocking on the door,” the 27-year-old said. “So I’m going to try and make a big push.”<\/span><\/p>\n Norrie made his ATP Finals debut as a reserve last season, playing two group matches in place of the injured Stefanos Tsitsipas.<\/span><\/p>\n Now, having been back playing in London this weekend as part of Team Europe at the Laver Cup, he will switch focus to concluding a superb 2022 with another high.<\/span><\/p>\n “I’m going to Seoul, Tokyo, a week off, Stockholm, Vienna, Paris, so a pretty full schedule,” he said.<\/span><\/p>\n “A lot of points on the line, and a lot of tennis to be played, but I want to just go all in to try and make Turin.”<\/span><\/p>\n Norrie was an alternate at the Laver Cup for Rafael Nadal, who withdrew from the Ryder Cup-style team event following his emotional doubles match alongside Roger Federer on Friday.<\/span><\/p>\n While the Briton lost to Taylor Fritz at the O2 on Saturday, he relished the chance to represent Team Europe.<\/span><\/p>\n “I was just honoured to be a part of this team and I felt like I really deserved to be a part of this team – earned it from what I have done in the last two years,” he said.<\/span><\/p>\n “I knew there was a good chance for me to play, so I was all in and I was going to be practising here in London anyway, so it was perfect timing. It’s one of the coolest events that I have ever been a part of, especially this year.”<\/span><\/p>\n Meanwhile, compatriot Andy Murray’s Laver Cup campaign ended with another defeat.<\/span><\/p>\n Having lost his singles to Australian Alex de Minaur after a deciding tie-break on Friday, the Scot and Italy’s Matteo Berrettini lost 6-2 3-6 (8-10) to Canadian Felix Auger-Aliassime and United States’ Jack Sock as Team World narrowed Europe’s lead to 8-7 in London.<\/span><\/p>\n
