Sao Paulo

Singles – First Round: F Volandri def. (7) A Montanes 6-2 6-3

Albert Montanes came in just below the Top Fifty, but presumably won’t make it now.

Singles – First Round: J Marti (WC) def. F Gil 6-2 6-4

Javier Marti has no results worth more than 35 points. So this should gain him several ranking spots.

Singles – First Round: R Mello def. P Riba 6-4 6-2

Ricardo Mello just fell to #123. This won’t put him back in the Top Hundred, but it might arrest the decline….

Doubles – First Round: (1) Butorac/Soares def. Berlocq/L Mayer 6-3 7-6(7-3)
