Norrie Makes it 4 Quarter-Finals This Year with Los Cabos Win

Cameron Norrie booked his place in the Los Cabos Open quarter-finals with a straight-set victory over James Duckworth in Mexico.

The British number two defeated Australia's Duckworth 6-4 6-4 to set up a meeting with former top-20 player Bernard Tomic in the last eight.

Norrie had to fight back from 3-0 down to claim the first set against Duckworth.

He broke twice in the second set to go 5-2 up, and survived a late wobble to serve out victory.

This is Norrie's fourth quarter-final appearance of the year, following wins in Sydney, Melbourne, and Indian Wells.

He will face Tomic, who stunned fourth seed Karen Khachanov in the previous round.

Tomic's victory sets up a potentially interesting match with Norrie, who will be looking to build on his recent form.
