Rafael Nadal will try to capture his 26th Masters Series title against United State's John Isner in the final of the Cincinnati Masters at the Lindner Family Tennis Center on Sunday.
Nadal looks to sustain his phenomenal run on the hard court as he attempts to annex his Rogers Cup victory last week with a title in the Western & Southern Open.
The 27-year old Spaniard dethroned defending champion Roger Federer in a competitive three-set quarterfinal duel before vanquishing Tomas Berdych in two sets.
On the other hand, Isner is playing the best tennis of his career, punching his way to the championship round with a victory against Juan Martin Del Potro 6-7, 7-6, 6-3. Before his final four win, Isner also stunned Novak Djokovic in another three-set thriller 7-6, 3-6, 7-5.
Sunday's championship match marks the fourth time the two netters face each other with Nadal winning all three previous meetings.
Aside from the men's singles final, Serena Williams and Victoria Azarenka will also play each other for the women's singles championship.
Williams, ranked no.1 in the world, is coming off a 7-5, 7-5 win over China's Li Na while Azarenka booked her seat in the finals with a 4-6, 6-2, 6-3 win over former top-rank player Jelena Jankovic.
Williams and Azarenka met 15 times already with the American taking a superior 13-2 head-to-head advantage over the Belarusian beauty.
