French Open 2021: Cameron Norrie reaches third round for first time

Britain's Cameron Norrie reached the French Open third round for the first time as he came from a set down to beat South Africa's Lloyd Harris.

World number 45 Norrie is the last Briton in the singles draw and is likely to face 13-time champion Rafael Nadal after the 4-6 6-3 6-3 6-2 win.

Nadal plays France's Richard Gasquet in Thursday's night session.

British number ones Dan Evans and Johanna Konta, as well as Heather Watson, were beaten in the first round.

Norrie, 25, arrived at Roland Garros on a run of good form having reached two finals in May and has now claimed 25 wins in 2021.
