Britain’s Cameron Norrie saved a match point as he produced a superb fightback to beat world number seven Alex de Minaur at the Canadian Open.

Norrie was a set and 5-2 down against the Australian third seed before coming through 5-7 7-6 (7-5) 6-1 to reach the fourth round.

De Minaur, leading by a double-break, had a match point on his own serve in the second set but double-faulted.

He twice served for the match but, at 5-4 up, double-faulted again to put the set back on level terms.

World number 37 Norrie edged the tie-break and then ran away with the deciding set to complete victory in two hours and 52 minutes.

“It was a great match to win and to test my level, and I can take so much confidence from this one,” the 30-year-old said.

“The level was so high the first two sets.

“From the beginning, [de Minaur] came out firing and I had to match it.”

Norrie – who reached the Los Cabos semi-finals last week – will face France’s Arthur Fils for a place in the quarter-finals.

De Minaur’s exit means that fifth seed Ben Shelton is the only top-10 men’s player remaining in Montreal.

World number one Jannik Sinner and third-ranked Novak Djokovic withdrew before the tournament began, while top seed Alexander Zverev lost his first match.

Sixth-ranked Daniil Medvedev, seventh seed Taylor Fritz and world number nine Flavio Cobolli also all lost in the second round.

Vipotnik, 24, has been linked with clubs across Europe in the wake of his spectacular 2025-26 campaign, but Swansea have indicated there have been no bids yet for the Slovenia international.

Republic of Ireland player Idah, 25, will be aiming to make a bigger impression in his second year at Swansea having played second fiddle to Vipotnik – and suffered a serious hamstring injury – last term.

The arrival of 30-year-old Stewart, who was a free agent after failing to agree a new deal at Southampton, means there will be fierce competition for a place in Swansea’s attack.

But Matos is adamant the former Sunderland player has not been recruited because one his other forwards is likely to be sold.

“We signed Ross because we believe it was an opportunity for us to catch a player with that right type of profile,” he added.

“It’s nothing related to [Vipotnik] leaving or not. It’s just what was a [good] opportunity.

“He brings leadership in a position where we needed experience of the league. He offers the same spontaneity in terms of the penalty box that Vipi (Vipotnik) has, he offers the same physicality that Adam can offer as well. So I think it’s a good combination with what we have at the moment.”
