British number one Cameron Norrie continued his preparations for the upcoming French Open with a straight-set win at the ATP event in Lyon.

Top seed Norrie, ranked 11th in the world, won 6-4 6-4 against Argentina's Francisco Cerundolo to reach the quarter-finals.

The 26-year-old had been troubled by a foot injury in Rome last week.

Meanwhile, Liam Broady was one of three British players to win their first-round French Open qualifying matches.

Broady, 28, started his bid for consecutive appearances in a Grand Slam main draw - which he has never done - with a 6-0 4-6 6-0 victory against Argentina's Renzo Olivo.

Fellow Britons Paul Jubb and Yuriko Miyazaki also progressed in Paris, with Jubb beating American Christopher Eubanks 6-2 6-7 (6-8) 7-6 (10-4) and Miyazaki winning 6-3 6-3 against Swiss opponent Ylena In-Albon.

The trio have two more rounds of qualifying to get through to reach the main draw, which starts on the Roland Garros clay on Sunday.

However, Katie Swan and Ryan Peniston are out after losing their respective matches against Bulgaria's Viktoriya Tomova and Russian Andrey Kuznetsov.

Jay Clarke, who was Britain's other representative in qualifying, was beaten on Monday,

Elsewhere, British women's number two Heather Watson lost 6-1 6-1 to Poland's Magda Linette at the WTA tournament in Strasbourg.
