Federer gives Roddick another masterclass
AFP, Cincinnati
Roger Federer crushed Andy Roddick for the sixth time in a row, winning a re-run of the past two Wimbledon finals 6-3, 7-5 here Sunday in the final of the 2.45-million-dollar ATP Cincinnati Masters. The Swiss top seed's 73-minute victory was his 22nd straight triumph in a final, a run dating to 2003 in Gstaad when he lost that final to Jiri Novak. Federer owns an 18th match win streak, standing 64-3 on the year. He has not lost since a French Open semi-final setback against Rafael Nadal on June 13. This was his first event since his Wimbledon title and his only US Open tune-up.
