Making the most of their WC 👊🇺🇸👊 @JohnIsner and @JackSock92 defeat Tsitsipas/Lopez 7-5 6-4 to reach the semi-finals! #IndianWells
John Isner and Jack Sock’s hunt for a second BNP Paribas Open title continued on Wednesday as they came through a tricky test against Feliciano Lopez and Stefanos Tsitsipas.
The 2018 champions ended their opponent’s six-match unbeaten run to reach the semi-finals in Indian Wells with a 7-5, 6-4 victory in front of a pumped up home crowd. It was Isner and Sock who stepped up at crucial moments, however, sealing victory in 78 minutes to extend their record as a pair in the California desert to 9-1.
Lopez and Tsitsipas looked to be in deep trouble as they found themselves an early break down in the second set, but the Abierto Mexicano Telcel presentado por HSBC champions showed no intention of going down quietly, breaking back to level at 3-3.
The American pair showed nerves of steel throughout as it saved five from six break points faced in the match, assisted by strong serving numbers. According to Infosys ATP Stats, Isner and Sock won 79 per cent (33/42) points behind their first delivery.

- Players need to STOP TRYING TO JUSTIFY THEIR INCLUSION!

Players were lured by the money, opted to participate, and should just keep their predictable excuses and Women's Freedom Fairy Tales to themselves. Period. Like most things in Life -- one cannot make an argument relating to the Saudi Regime and, at the same time, triple your bank account with their "gifts".
