American Andy Roddick joined a select group of players -- Boris Becker, Lleyton Hewitt and John McEnroe -- Sunday when he defeated France's Nicolas Mahut 4-6, 7-6 (7), 7-6 (2) to win his fourth Queen's Club title.

Roddick, seeded second, also won from 2003-05.

"I think it's nice winning at tournaments that you really enjoy playing at," Roddick said. "To have won four is great. I'll have a number of chances to get five. My focus right now is on getting No. 1 at Wimbledon."

Mahut, who beat French Open champion Rafael Nadal in the quarterfinals, was not broken once in the match. He is 0-2 against Roddick.

Roddick served 24 aces and had only one break point. That came at 4-4 in the opening set, but Mahut hit a low forehand volley to force an error. Mahut then earned the only break of the match to claim the set when Roddick's attempt to send a winner down the line went wide.

Games went with serve in the second set before Roddick faced a match point at 7-6 in the tiebreaker, but Mahut netted a forehand and then made another forehand error to drop the set.

"It's good to get some of those tough matches in before Wimbledon," Roddick said.
