Defending Auckland champ John Isner lost to David Nalbandian yesterday in straight sets. Isner was not looking all good because he seemed to be troubled by an arm injury or something during the match.
The American had played Hopman Cup and helped the USA defeat Belgium to win the title.
Nalbandian will play Nicolas Almagro in the semifinals. In the other match, David Ferrer will take on unseeded Colombian Santiago Giraldo.
