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.

Giant qualifier Jarry fired down 46 aces in his 103 winners - and unleashed a verbal volley to the umpire and then Norrie after the match. Norrie responded by not getting his serve broken once during the longest match of his career - and then rising above the provocation from the 6ft 7in South American.
