SHANGHAI, China.- El argentino David Nalbandi\u00e1n sorprendi\u00f3 al ganar la Copa Masters de tenis de
\nShanghai derrotando al n\u00famero uno mundial, el suizo Roger Federer, en cinco sets 6-7 (4\/7), 6-7 (11\/13), 6-2, 6-1, 7-6 (7\/3), este domingo en la final.
\nNalbandi\u00e1n, de 23 a\u00f1os, se convierte as\u00ed en el primer argentino
\nque gana el torneo de maestros desde Guillermo Vilas en 1974. En principio, el argentino, 12\u00ba jugador mundial, no iba a participar en el Masters pero fue llamado a \u00faltima hora para sustituir al estadounidense Andy Roddick.
\nEste jugador multi-superficies, que se revel\u00f3 en 2002 alcanzando la final de Wimbledon, consigue la victoria m\u00e1s
\nimportante de su carrera.
\nTras ganar las dos primeras mangas, re\u00f1id\u00edsimas, Federer dio la impresi\u00f3n de derrumbarse f\u00edsicamente en las dos siguientes.
\nPerdiendo 4-0 en el \u00faltimo set, a\u00fan encontr\u00f3 fuerzas para ponerse 4-4, antes de ceder el partido en un \u00faltimo tie-break, al t\u00e9rmino de un interminable partido de 4 horas y 33 minutos.
\nEl n\u00famero uno del mundo, que regresaba a la competici\u00f3n tras
\nun mes de ausencia por lesi\u00f3n, esperaba igualar a Ilie Nastase y
\na Ivan Lendl, los dos \u00fanicos tenistas que ganaron tres veces
\nseguidas la Copa Masters.
\nTambi\u00e9n pretend\u00eda alcanzar a John McEnroe, que desde 1984
\nostenta el mejor balance de una temporada en la era Open, con 82 victorias y 3 derrotas, pero el suizo tendr\u00e1 que conformarse con 81 victorias y 4 derrotas este a\u00f1o.<\/p>\n
