Barcelona Open: Cameron Norrie out but Dan Evans beats Karen Khachanov

British number one Cameron Norrie is out of the Barcelona Open but Dan Evans progressed to the quarter-finals with an impressive win over Karen Khachanov.

Seventh seed Norrie controlled the first set of his last-16 match against Lorenzo Musetti but the Italian fought back to win 3-6 6-4 6-1.

British number two Evans broke serve once in each set to overcome Russian sixth seed Khachanov 6-3 6-4.

He will play third seed Casper Ruud or Argentine Francisco Cerundolo next.

Evans, 32, has found form on clay after a run of six successive defeats since reaching the third round at the Australian Open in January.
