Shanghai: If history repeats itself, David Nalbandian will lose to Roger Federer to open the Tennis Masters Cup Shanghai tournament on Sunday. If history repeats itself, Nalbandian won't mind. Last year, Nalbandian and Federer opened the tournament with the top-ranked Swiss player coming away victorious in the round-robin. But when the two met again in the final, it was Nalbandian who pulled off the upset, rallying from two sets down to win a fifth-set tiebreak and snap Federer's 14-match Masters Cup winning streak. Sunday's second singles match will pit Croatian Ivan Ljubicic against American Andy Roddick. Federer is attempting to become the first player to win three Masters Cups and the first man to win a year-ending championship three times since Pete Sampras captured the last of his five ATP Tour World Championship titles in 1999.
