DELRAY BEACH, Fla. (AP) - Local favorite Vince Spadea upset defending champion Tommy Haas 6-3, 2-6, 6-4 in the quarterfinals of the Delray Beach International Tennis Championships on Friday.
The win over the ninth-ranked Haas was Spadea's first victory against a top 10 player in nearly three years. Spadea last beat a top 10 player in 2004, when he upset Germany's Rainer Schuettler in the third round at Wimbledon.
Since then, the 63rd-ranked Spadea had lost 11 straight against players ranked in the top 10.
