US Open Mens Finals Preview this Saturday?

-Getty

Both Roger Federer and Andy Murray made it past the quarterfinals today in Mason, OH at the Western & Southern Financial Group Masters. Federer was able to cruise past Lleyton Hewitt with a 6-3, 6-4 victory. Murray on the other hand, had to dig a little deeper, after losing the first set to Julien Benneteau he was able to bounce-back in the second and take the match 4-6, 6-3, 6-1 .
Roger and Andy's victories today have set up a semifinal match between the two for Saturday, the winner will most likely go into the US Open with a bit more confidence. A lot more is riding on this match than one might think, Andy's furious push to gain the #1 ranking is becoming more like reality day-by-day. Also, we might be looking at the same match-up this year at the US Open Finals.

I guess we will see on Saturday...
