Britain's Cameron Norrie described his upset of Carlos Alcaraz as "the biggest win of my career" as he reached the Paris Masters last 16 with a gritty comeback against the world number one
Norrie, who was beaten in straight sets by the Spaniard in this year's Wimbledon quarter-finals, won 4-6 6-3 6-4 in the second round of the ATP Masters 1,000 event in the French capital.
"This win is so big for me. I had lost the first round of the qualifiers here last year. Coming back from my injury, I've been trying to enjoy my tennis in the second half of the year and I was able to do that," said Norrie, who missed the Olympic Games in Paris and the US Open last year because of a forearm injury.
"To get the biggest win of my career, my first win over a world number one, and probably the most confident player in the world right now, I am pleased with the way I did it."
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.
The Briton will next face the winner of the second-round match between wildcards - and cousins - Valentin Vacherot and Arthur Rinderknech.
