Britain’s Cameron Norrie fell short of the Australian Open quarter-finals as sixth seed Alexander Zverev edged an absorbing five-setter by winning a first-to-10 match tie-break.
Norrie, seeded 19th, lost 7-5 3-6 6-3 4-6 7-6 (10-3) to Germany’s Zverev.
After one of his best performances at a major to beat Casper Ruud in the third round, Norrie played even better against Olympic champion Zverev.
But his mistakes in the deciding tie-break proved costly as Zverev won.
