Britain's Cameron Norrie stunned world number one Carlos Alcaraz with a gritty comeback in the second round of the Paris Masters.

Norrie, who was beaten in straight sets by the Spaniard in this year's Wimbledon quarter-finals, won 4-6 6-3 6-4 to reach the last 16 of the ATP Masters 1,000 event.

Alcaraz won the first set before Norrie responded strongly in the second by breaking early and maintaining his momentum to set up the decider.

The world number 31 then played an incredible backhand pass to break Alcaraz in the final set and saved two break points on his way to victory.
