Jo-Wilfried Tsonga will face Roger Federer in the final of the Paris Masters after he required two tie-breaks to defeat John Isner.

Frenchman Jo-Wilfried Tsonga recovered from a set down to advance through to the final of the Paris Masters against John Isner this evening.

American Isner claimed the opening set 6-3, but Tsonga hit back in the next set to claim the tie-break 7-1.

Isner had three match points during the decisive set to move into tomorrow's final, but on each occasion number six seed Tsonga held his nerve to force another tie-break.

Once again Tsonga emerged victorious to win the match against Isner, who didn't lose his service game throughout the course of the semi-final.

Tsonga will now play Roger Federer tomorrow afternoon, following the former world number one's victory over Tomas Berdych earlier today.
