Cameron Norrie became the first Briton to win the Indian Wells title when he fought back from a set and a break down to beat Nikoloz Basilashvili.

Norrie, 26, won 3-6 6-4 6-1 against the Georgian to seal one of the biggest titles in tennis.

“I’m so happy, I can’t even describe it,” he said on court.

His exploits in California have propelled Norrie to British number one and he is in the running to reach the elite season-ending ATP Finals.

Norrie will rise to a career-high 15th in the world, having started the year ranked 74th, after a stunning season where he has reached six finals and won 47 matches.
