Cameron Norrie reacts to beating Nick Kyrgios and Stefanos Tsitsipas in same day

Cameron Norrie stepped up his preparations for the Australian Open with two wins in the same day in Saudi Arabia.

The British No.1 is one of several big names taking part in the Diriyah Tennis Cup this week, with a prize of $1,000,000 (£813,000) up for grabs for the winner. With a number of the world's top 10 players in action in the exhibition event, Norrie was one of eight unseeded players and therefore had to negotiate a tricky first round match against Nick Kyrgios.

The first round followed a best-of-three match tie-breaks to 10, with Norrie seeing off the Australian 10-6, 10-6. He then followed that up with a straight sets win (6-4, 6-4) over Stefanos Tsipitas under the regular scoring rules, to secure his place in the semi-finals.
