Cameron Norrie’s hopes of reaching the fourth round of the Australian Open for the first time ended with a five-set loss to the Czech youngster Jiri Lehecka.
The British No 1 struggled initially in breezy conditions but looked to be on the right path when he opened up a two sets to one lead. But 21-year-old Lehecka, ranked 71 in the world, battled back to take the second and Norrie took a medical timeout for treatment to his left knee early in the fifth set before falling to a 6-7 (8), 6-3, 3-6, 6-1, 6-4 defeat.
