British number one Cameron Norrie cruised to a 6-2 6-2 victory over Japan's Kaichi Uchida to reach the quarter-finals of the Korea Open.

The 27-year-old broke two of his opponent's service games in each set to progress in one hour and three minutes.

The Briton, who is seeded two at the tournament, will face either Korean number one, Kwon Soon-woo, or American Jenson Brooksby.

Norrie has won two titles this year and reached the top 10 for the first time.

The victory takes Broady to his second career ATP quarter-final - his first since 2017.

Broady, who came through qualifying, will face Croatian Marin Cilic for a place in the semi-final.
