British men's number two Cameron Norrie continued his positive end to an injury-hit season by reaching the Moselle Open semi-finals.
The 29-year-old moved into the last four with a 6-3 6-7 (6-8) 6-1 win over Belgium's Zizou Bergs.
The former world number eight is playing in only his third ATP event since July because of a forearm injury which ruled him out of the US Open.
After being unable to take two match points in the second set tie-break, Norrie recovered to dominate the deciding set against 61st-ranked Bergs.
"I should have had the tie-breaker in the second set but he played quicker than me and took a bit more risk," said Norrie, who has dropped to 57th in the rankings.
"I was not happy but I managed to reset.
"He's a good player and had a really good year so it's a really great win for me."
Norrie will play France's Corentin Moutet in the semi-finals at about 14:30 GMT on Friday.
Moutet, ranked 66th, advanced when Russian top seed Andrey Rublev withdrew after securing his place at the end-of-season ATP Finals next week.
