Cameron Norrie loses just one game in quarter-final demolition of Bernard Tomic; Norrie will face defending champion Denis Shapovalov in the last four; watch the Mubadala DC Open and the Los Cabos Open live on Sky Sports

>Cameron Norrie raced into his first semi-final of 2026 with a 6-1 6-0 thrashing of Bernard Tomic at the Los Cabos Open.

>Britain's Norrie had been on a six-match losing streak before arriving in Mexico but has strung together three successive straight-set victories to set up a last-four clash with defending champion Denis Shapovalov.

>Tomic, who reached the main draw as a lucky loser from qualifying, held serve in the opening game of the match but then lost the next 12 as Norrie completed the rout in just 50 minutes.

>Norrie said: "I'm pleased with the result. I was very solid, I returned well, I made a lot of tough balls when I needed to, and I kept him moving. I enjoyed the match, and it's nice to go to bed a little bit earlier.

>"It was a tough one at the French Open. I overtrained a little bit, but good learning. And then I lost a couple of tough matches at Wimbledon and Queen's, and it was a while for me to get my confidence back.

>"To get a win here meant a lot. I took a lot of confidence from that and I was just able to play, not thinking about too much, just enjoying myself."

>The fifth-seeded Norrie will face the only other remaining seed in the draw, Shapovalov, after the Canadian beat Dalibor Svrcina in straight sets.

>"I watched his match," Norrie said of Shapovalov. "He's really confident at the moment.

>"He's obviously the defending champion, so he likes the conditions a lot. And when he's confident, he's one of the toughest guys in the world to play.

>"But I'm going to focus on myself, enjoy tonight, and get ready for tomorrow."

>The other semi-final sees Hong Kong's Coleman Wong take on Frenchman Arthur Gea, who upset third seed Francisco Cerundolo.
