Top seed John Isner booked his spot in his eighth Atlanta Open final, defeating Aussie Matthew Ebden 6-4, 6-7 (6/8), 6-1 in the semi-finals.

The hard-serving Isner avenged his only loss to Ebden in five career ATP Tour meetings when the Aussie beat him earlier this year at the Australian Open.

"It was tough," Isner said. "Just like yesterday, I was able to get out early in the third set and that definitely took some pressure off.

"I'm very happy to be back in the final here."
