Cameron Norrie, by his own admission, has been playing "seven out of 10 tennis".

That's a good thing, he says, having described his form at the French Open as "vintage Norrie".

Consistency has been the backbone of former world number eight Norrie's success over the years, demonstrating a high rally tolerance and indefatigable energy.

So far that still hasn't been enough to beat Novak Djokovic, who has won all five of their previous meetings - including a three-set victory in the Geneva semi-finals just 10 days ago.

Norrie is hoping the longer format at Roland Garros might help change that record against the 38-year-old Serb.
