Federer routs Blake in Cincy for 50th career title

Mason, OH (Sports Network) - Roger Federer breezed past James Blake in straight sets of the Cincinnati Masters final to capture his 50th career ATP singles title.
The Swiss superstar had little trouble defeating the American Blake, winning 6-1, 6-4, to become the fifth-youngest player to reach 50 career wins at 26 years and 11 days. Novak Djokovic denied Federer of the milestone last week in the final at the Montreal Masters.
It is the fifth title in 2007 for Federer, who won the Australian Open and Wimbledon this year. The top-seeded and world No. 1 Federer also captured his second Cincinnati crown, having won here in 2005.
The ninth-seeded Blake fell to 0-7 lifetime against Federer, having lost to the Swiss star in three finals.
Federer pocketed $400,000 for winning, while Blake took home $200,000.
