Tim Henman set up a thrilling clash with fellow Brit Greg Rusedski by beating Fabrice Santoro 6-3 6-2 in the CA Trophy second round in Vienna.

British number one Henman was always in control after breaking his opponent in the fourth game.

He then claimed two more breaks came early in the second set.

Henman faltered, himself being broken by the Frenchman, but he regained his composure to see out the match.

Rusedski must now beat Spaniard Fernando Vicente if he is to face Henman.
