Cincinnati ATP Masters 1000 Winner
3 Roger Federer d Mardy Fish - 67(5) 76(1) 64
This match boiled down to a single break - of the last Fish service game.
With the win Roger gets his 2nd title of '10.
It's the latest in a season he's bagged a 2nd title since '01 when he only won 1.
This is Roger's 2nd straight & 4th overall title in Cincy - tying Mats Wilander.
It's also his 17th Masters title - equalling Agassi & 1 behind leader Nadal.
This ties him at #5 on the title leader list with Bjorn Borg with 63 titles.
He is 1 behind Pete Sampras who has 64.
Roger now heads to the US Open as the #2 seed & brimming with confidence.
Knew it: I wrote 2 weeks ago that Roger would turn up the heat this Summer.

Gotta feel for Fish tho. This might have been his best chance...
A few months ago the guy was ranked in the 100's. Tomorrow: the 20's.
Easily the most improved player of the year.
