Bedene took the ball on more, was a bit more aggressive. I think he desereved to win set

Terrific defence from Norrie, and he gets his reward with an overhead winner.

When you see Bedene it is very difficult to tell whether he is winning or losing, he has the same expression. A very good competitor, he just gets on with it.

The problem with reporting on tennis at this hour on a sunny July day is that you can be stuck looking at a player who is just a yellow blur.
It doesn’t seem to be affecting either player much, mind you. We’ve haven’t had many double faults or wildly misjudged serves.
That’s why they are there and I’m sat on a seat.

Bedene 4-6 7-6 (7-4) 6-5 Norrie*
Some wind helps a Cameron Norrie forehand go long over the baseline for 30-0.
Aljaz Bedene picks an inopportune moment to double fault, handing Norrie a point, but the Slovenian reels off the next two points.
Once again, Norrie will serve to stay in the set.

Long goes the Bedene forehand.
He's still got another chance to take the set, though...

Norrie is taking the ball on more now. You have to have a plan B if you want to become a top player and I think he can. He's not a defensive player but likes to react. In the second set he was being moved around.
He has reacted, and you have to change your game, even if it is slightly outside your comfort zone.
