Isner Sails Into Delray Beach QF

John Isner advanced to his second quarter-final in as many weeks on Wednesday, dismissing Slovakian Lukas Lacko 6-4, 6-3 at the Delray Beach Open by VITACOST.com. The three-time semi-finalist dropped only one first-serve point (31/32) and improved to 4-0 against Lacko in their FedEx ATP Head2Head series, which dates back to Auckland 2014.

The second-seeded Isner will face eighth seed Adrian Mannarino for a place in the semi-finals. The Frenchman beat Denis Istomin of Uzbekistan 6-2, 7-6(3) for his second win of 2019.
