Vienna Open: Norrie comes through tough Misolic test to book spot in second round

Cameron Norrie beat Austrian Filip Misolic 7-6 (7), 4-6, 6-3 to move into the second round of the Vienna Open at the Wiener Stadthalle.

Qualifier Misolic gave the British No 1 a closer fight than he would’ve liked, as he pushed Cam Norrie to a breaker in the first set before taking the second to force a decider.

Norrie, ranked No 18, will play German Alexander Zverev, the No 5 seed, next.
