JACK DRAPER became the second British No.1 to be knocked out in the space of four hours in another Battle of Britain upset.
Just as Katie Boulter had crashed out against lowerranked compatriot Harriet Dart in the ladies singles on Court No.1 earlier, Draper went down 7-6 6-4 7-6 as Norrie unfurled his best performance of 2024.
Just three weeks ago the 2022 Wimbledon semifinalist had lost to no-hoper Jack Pinnington-Jones, ranked a distant 776th in the world, at the Nottingham Challenger tournament.
