Isner Drops Robredo in ATP Heineken Open

Jan. 14 -- American John Isner upset Spanish top seed Tommy Robredo Thursday in their ATP Heineken Open quarter-final at Auckland, Australia.

The unseeded American fired 20 aces to down the world number 16 with a 7-6 (7/5), 3-6, 6-4 victory in the ATP event ahead of next week's Australian Open.

In a tight match, the world's 33rd ranked player had to overcome an early break by the Spaniard in the third set before breaking back twice for victory.

Robredo's departure completed the exit of the top four seeds from Spain after number two David Ferrer and number four Nicolas Almagro were beaten in the second round. Third seed Juan Carlos Ferrero was forced out with an ankle sprain.
