Kim and Fisher to meet in World Match Play final

By PAUL LOGOTHETIS AP Sports Writer

CASARES, Spain (AP) - Ross Fisher has beaten Masters champion Angel Cabrera on the third playoff hole to set up a World Match Play Championship final against Anthony Kim, who beat Robert Allenby 5 and 4.

Fisher secured a 1-up win after Cabrera conceded on Saturday, having needed five shots to reach the green. Fisher had powered his second shot 244 yards to within 5 feet of the pin in fading light at the Finca Cortesin golf course.

Kim rallied from an early two-hole deficit against Allenby, pulling away at the 27th hole when he holed an approach from 101 yards.

The 36-hole final takes place on Sunday.
