The 25-year-old overcame the American, who is ranked 47 places above him in the world at 28th, 6-4 4-6 6-3.
Norrie will play either Mikhail Kukushkin of Kazakhstan or Serbia’s Miomir Kecmanovic in the last 16.

Evans claimed the first set against fifth-seeded Wawrinka and then had three match points in the second set.
But the Swiss three-time Grand Slam winner survived before pulling off an impressive turnaround to claim victory.
Stefanos Tsitsipas withdrew from the tournament because of a “minor” leg injury picked up at the French Open.
“Following my doctor’s feedback, I decided to withdraw from St Petersburg, take a week off and prepare for Vienna,” said Tsitsipas on social media.
