The happy hunting grounds for Roger Federer

On Sunday Roger Federer ensured Novak Djokovic finished second best in Cincinnati for the fifth time in his career and denied him a 'career-masters'.
In the process, the Swiss bettered his own record at the prestigious Masters Series event.  Federer has now won all the seven finals he contested in Ohio.
 takes a look at a few other events that have fetched prolific returns for the Swiss master.

Roger Federer avenged his Wimbledon final loss to Novak Djokovic by beating the Serb 7-6(1), 6-3 on Sunday to capture his second consecutive Western & Southern Open title.
The Swiss second seed, playing Djokovic for the first time since losing to him in the Wimbledon final for a second straight year last month, brought his record number of Cincinnati titles to seven with the victory.
Federer also denied longtime rival Djokovic from completing the set of all nine ATP Masters titles and took a 21-20 edge in career head-to-head meetings.
He claimed his 87th career ATP title and his 24th trophy in a Masters 1000 event. More importantly, it was his seventh title in Cincinnati from as many finals. Can there be a more perfect record?
