Marat Safin came from a set down to defeat Ernests Gulbis and set up a clash with top seed Tommy Haas in the quarter-finals of the LA Open.
Eighth seed Safin beat Latvia’s Gulbis 2-6 6-3 6-4 to book a clash against Germany’s Haas, who saw off the United States’ Jesse Levine 6-1 6-3 in 62 minutes.
America’s John Isner overcame an injury late in the second set tie-break to beat out-of-form Marcos Baghdatis 6-3 7-6 and set up a quarter-final meeting with qualifier Carsten Ball.
The Australian progressed as a result of opponent Dmitry Tursunov, the number three seed, having to retire with an ankle injury.
Ball won the first set but trailed 1-0 in the second when Russian Tursunov decided he was unable to continue.
