GOTHENBURG, Sweden -- Andy Roddick rolled to a straight-set victory over Jonas Bjorkman to lift the United States into the Davis Cup final.

Roddick notched a 6-2, 7-6 (7-3), 6-4 triumph to give the Americans an insurmountable 3-1 lead in their best-of-five semifinal tie against Sweden.

The United States will play the winner of the semifinal between Germany and defending champion Russia.

Bjorkman, who was part of Sweden's losing doubles team on Saturday, was a replacement for the ailing Thomas Johansson, who won his opening singles match on Friday against James Blake.

Roddick, a winner Friday against Joachim Johansson in the opening singles match, dominated the first set Sunday with a pair of breaks. The second set went to a tiebreaker, where Roddick dominated again by winning the first five points to take control.

Bjorkman was unable to break Roddick's serve on just three opportunities throughout the match, and the American gained his third break for a 3-2 lead in the third set. Roddick held from there to close it out in just over two hours.

The Americans will now play in the Davis Cup final for the first time since a loss to Spain three years ago.

Despite owning a record 31 Davis Cup titles, the U.S. is currently in its longest-ever championship drought, having not hoisted the chalice since 1995.

The Americans improved to 9-3 all-time against Sweden, dating back to 1946, including a quarterfinal victory in Florida in 2004. The Swedes are now 3-2 versus the U.S. in their ties on home turf, including a 5-0 victory in a final 10 years ago. Sweden also topped the Americans in the final back in 1984.

The Davis Cup final is scheduled for Nov. 30-Dec. 2.
