The Slovene took out Miñaur (4/WR 21) in straight sets in his semi.

Molcan is now coached by Marian Vajda, Djoko's recently departed coach. And could play Djoko Rd 2 in France.

Well done, Cam, great battle

Seems to have taken you even longer SC. The missing last digit is a 4 wink

Cam had two match points - one of which he dumped horribly into the net.

But now 5-5 in the second

Final: (1) Cameron Norrie WR 11 defeated Alex Molcan (SLO) WR 47 by 6-3 6-7(3) 6-1

He spurned match points in the 10th game of the second set, then handed Molcan a mini-break on a plate by serving a double fault at the start of the tie-break!
