Cameron Norrie finds form to stun British number one Jack Draper

Draper came into the Championships on a rich vein of form having won his first ATP Tour title in Stuttgart a couple of weeks earlier.

Seeded at Wimbledon for the first time, his five-set victory under the Centre Court lights in the first round evoked memories of Andy Murray.

But Draper, whose career has already been hampered by injury and fitness issues, will have to wait at least another year to try and emulate the two-time Wimbledon winner.

The left-handers needed a tie-break to settle the opening set and Norrie swept aside his big-hitting opponent with lightning-fast reactions at the net.

The former world number eight continued to outsmart Draper, winning the next four games before holding off the 28th seed to take a two-set lead.

Unable to serve out the third after breaking early, Draper was left ruing missed chances as Norrie took charge of the tie-break to reach the third round.
