Norrie, the last Briton standing in SW19, saw a match point saved in the third set against Nicolas Jarry in the previous round before eventually winning over five sets. Tim Henman and Andy Murray are the only other British stars to reach two Wimbledon quarter-finals this century.

Carlos Alcaraz and Cameron Norrie have one unexpected fact in common: they both took a short holiday in Ibiza before the start of this grass-court season.

It was a Wimbledon to remember for Cameron Norrie, who, for just the second time in his career, reached the quarter-finals of the Championships. Hopes of a maiden Grand Slam title were slashed by the formidable Carlos Alcaraz, who put him to the sword on Centre Court, winning 2-6, 3-6, 3-6.
