LONDON: British number two Cameron Norrie will bid for his first ATP Tour title on Sunday after reaching the final at Queen's Club with a superb display.

Norrie, 25, sealed an impressive 7-5 6-3 semi-final victory over second seed Denis Shapovalov of Canada.

He will face Italian top seed Matteo Berrettini at the Cinch Championships in his fourth final and first on grass.

Five-time champion Andy Murray is the only Briton to have won the Queen's title in the Open era.

Norrie has now won 29 matches this year - more than any other player except for Russia's Andrey Rublev - and 15 of those victories have been against players ranked above him.

"It hasn't really sunk in yet," said the world number 41. "I think I played very well today and I'm so pleased to be through to the final here."

Norrie's day is not quite over because he and partner Alex de Minaur will face Reilly Opelka and John Peers for a place in the doubles final later.

Berrettini, who overcame Murray and British number one Dan Evans in earlier rounds, dominated Australian fourth seed De Minaur to come through his semi-final 6-4 6-4. Agencies
