Lleyton Hewitt defeated James Blake, 6-4, 6-4 on Sunday to join Boris Becker and John McEnroe with four titles at Queen's club. Victory marked the first title for former world number one Hewitt in 18 months since the Australian lifted the Sydney crown in January 2005.
Balke beat Hewitt in their last meeting, the final in Las Vegas in February. Hewitt now stands 7-1 in his career series against the American. Hewitt won his first three Queen's trophies from 2000 to 2002.
