07/23/2010 - Atlanta, GA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Americans Andy Roddick and John Isner were a pair of quarterfinal winners in Friday's action at the Atlanta Tennis Championships.

Roddick, the top seed, recovered after dropping the first set to beat Xavier Malisse 4-6, 6-3, 6-4. This match was a replay of the 2001 final, the last time this tournament was held; Roddick, 18 at the time, also beat Malisse in that matchup to win the title.

Isner, meanwhile, breezed past fellow American Michael Russell 6-1, 6-2, in under an hour. Isner, who played his collegiate tennis at the nearby University of Georgia, is in search of his second career title and will next face South African Kevin Anderson, who topped Slovakia's Lukas Lacko 6-3, 6-4.

Meanwhile, Roddick's semifinal opponent will be another U.S. native, Mardy Fish. Fish had no problems beating Taylor Dent 6-3, 6-0 in 52 minutes.

The tournament winner will receive $95,845.
