Cam Norrie, Billy Harris and Dan Evans receive main draw wild cards for the HSBC Championships

The Queen’s Club gets set for a second week of world class tennis from 16-22 June after the conclusion of its first women’s event for over 50 years. 

Back-to-back Wimbledon and Roland Garros champion Carlos Alcaraz is set to headline the tournament, alongside British No.1 and world No.4 Jack Draper, Taylor Fritz, Holger Rune and Alex de Minaur – and many more.

British No.2 Jacob Fearnley has also earned himself a spot in the main draw at the HSBC Championships following the withdrawals of reigning champion Tommy Paul and Lorenzo Musetti.

The British wild cards will look to challenge the top-ranked players in the world at one of the most iconic events in the tennis calendar. 

2021 runner-up Norrie returns to The Queen’s Club in his best form of the season so far – reaching the fourth round at the French Open and semi-final in Geneva in his last two events. 

This will be Norrie’s first grass court event of the summer but it’s a surface where he’s had some of the best results of his career. A year after making the final at Queen’s, the former world No.8 went on to reach the semi-finals at Wimbledon – the best Grand Slam performance of his career. 

Harris was one of the breakout stars of the grass court season last summer – making semi-finals in Surbiton, Nottingham and Eastbourne, as well as a quarter-final at Queen’s. 

The big serving Brit is currently ranked just outside the world’s top 100 and could tick off that milestone with another good run in West London. 

Heading straight from a second round appearance in Ilkley to the HSBC Championships, Harris will be hoping he can spark his grass court season alight when he returns to the venue that saw him reach his first ATP 500 semi-final almost 12 months ago. 

Evans will be heading back to British soil following a run to the second round of the Libema Open.

The 35-year-old came through two rounds of qualifying to reach the main draw and beat Australia’s Rinky Hijikata in the first round before being defeated by Frenchman Ugo Humbert.

With two grass court tournaments already under his belt this summer, Evans could be one to watch next week as he looks to cause an upset in West London.
