BASEL - Top seed Juan Martin del Potro won the Swiss Indoors for the second straight year as the Argentine beat five-time champion Roger Federer 7-6 (7/3), 2-6, 6-4 on Sunday. The re-run of last year's title match which ended with a similar result took two hours, 20 minutes with Federer sealing his fate at the start of the third set by dropping serve as he delivered two double faults in the opening game. The Swiss third seed had the chance to clinch his spot in the World Tour Finals starting in eight days in London but will now have to wait until play next week as the ATP regular season closes at the Paris Masters. Del Potro now owns four titles this season and has defeated Federer in their last three matches. Federer fired 14 aces to no avail as his disappointing season continues.–AFP
