PERTH, Australia (AP)—Tommy Robredo beat John Isner 6-7 (5), 6-3, 7-6 (4) on Sunday to give Spain an insurmountable 2-0 lead over the United States in the Hopman Cup.
Earlier in the mixed-team event, Maria Jose Martinez Sanchez beat Melanie Oudin 6-4, 6-4. Oudin and Isner faced Martinez Sanchez and Robredo in mixed doubles later Sunday.
Robredo took a 3-0 in the final set tiebreaker, but Isner fought back to level it at 4-4 before Robredo won the final three points.
