PARIS (Reuters) - Jack Sock ended local favourite Julien Benneteau's run at the Paris Masters with a 7-5 6-2 victory to reach the final and move to the brink of an ATP Finals spot on Saturday. Sock is looking to snatch the last remaining spot for the eight-man tournament at the O2, which is currently held by Spain's Pablo Carreno Busta. Sock broke decisively for 6-5 in the opening set when he benefited from a net cord. Krajinovic, who benefited from world number one Rafa Nadal's withdrawal in the quarter-finals, held serve throughout and relied on his quick backhand to unsettle Isner. Krajinovic had other ideas as he won seven of the nine following points to reach his first ATP final, triggering wild celebrations in his camp.
