Down 7-5 5-2 with De Minaur on match point, Norrie turned the tables by winning 11 out of the next 13 games to beat the Australian 5-7 7-6 (7-5) 6-1. Norrie, who has climbed above Arthur Fery to No 36 in the live rankings will become the new British No 1, but the former Wimbledon semi-finalist has ambitions of collecting the second Masters title of his career with Frenchman Arthur Fils up next. Norrie displayed his typical resilience and converted eight of his 13 break chances to reach the fourth round. Asked whether he now sees himself as one of the favourites to win the title, Norrie replied: "Everyone is so tough.
I'm playing the next highest guy Fils - he's one of the best players in the world when he's confident and playing well but I'm just so happy. "I've got some time to rest, happy with my attitude. I played every single point and that's what I came to do and it was the icing on the cake to win the match.
De Minaur was the highest seed remaining at the hard-court tournament. Now that title belongs to Ben Shelton, the fifth seed and defending champion. Tennis scores, results and upcoming matches.
