2015 Western & Southern Open
Defending champion Roger Federer defeated Novak Djokovic in the final, 7–6(7–1), 6–3 to win the men's singles tennis title at the 2015 Cincinnati Masters. It was his seventh Cincinnati Masters title on his seventh final appearance, making him the second man to go undefeated in seven finals at the same Masters 1000 event (after Rafael Nadal at the Monte-Carlo Masters). For the second time in his career (after 2012), Federer did not lose a set or have his serve broken during the tournament.Federer wins 7th Cincinnati title; Djokovic denied again http://www.tennis.com/pro-game/2015/08/federer-wins-7th-cincinnati-title-djokovic-denied-again/55997/ tennis.com 24 August 2015 It marked the first time Federer defeated the world No. 1 and No. 2 players in consecutive matches en route to a title.Federer Foils Djokovic For Seventh Cincy Crown http://www.atpworldtour.com/en/news/cincinnati-2015-final-federer-djokovic atpworldtour.com 23 August 2015 It was Djokovic's fifth runner-up finish without winning the title; he would eventually do so in 2018.
