(CNN) -- Defending champion Roger Federer will seek to claim his fourth Cincinnati Masters title on Sunday when he faces Mardy Fish.
The third seed Federer leads Fish 5-1 in career meetings, but Fish beat Federer in their last meeting in 2008 at Indian Wells, according to ATP World Tour's Web site.
In Saturday's semifinal, Fish beat fellow American ninth seed Andy Roddick 4-6, 7-6(3), 6-1 after rallying from a set down and near-defeat in the second set, according to ATP World Tour.
Two rain delays went in favor of Fish, the first coming when Roddick led 5-4 in the first set, giving each players an hour respite. The second delay came during the second set when Fish was facing near-defeat at 2-5. Fish would return and force a tie-breaker, which he'd win, followed by a dominant deciding set.
"I've never felt better on the court, and I've never been more confident and I've never played better," Fish said, according to ATP World Tour's Web site. "I've won a lot of matches this summer. [The weight loss] has a ton to do with it," he added, referring to some 30 pounds (13.6 kilos) he has shed.
Of the weather, Roddick said, according to ATP World Tour, "That's the thing with rain delays. The momentum can shift really fast". CNN
