(4) Mardy Fish def. (5) Sam Querrey 6-3, 6-4
World No. 17 Mardy Fish made the final four early Friday, following his straight-set victory against defending champion Sam Querrey. The 29-year-old American tallied 8 aces and three service breaks through and hour and 19 minutes of play. After taking the first set, Fish continued his effort with a key service break at 2-2 in the second.
“I came in here not knowing what to expect in terms of my health and I have gotten so much better since Friday when I got here. I’ve been pleasantly surprised how well I have felt in every match. Getting through the long 2 hr., 40 min. match helped me a lot,” Fish said.
He will face off against Milos Raonic for a place in the final. The Canadian held on to oust qualifier Robert Kendrick in the quarterfinal, 6-4, 3-6, 6-3.
