Does anyone know her intended schedule or where she plays next? :angel:

I'm guessing she'll play the 25k's in Mexico in February.

pf Scott you could have asked me in private ;)

No Mexicans are commited to any events before Acapulco :rolleyes:

There are 4 $10,000 tournaments after Acapulco and in April 2 $25,000 in Coatzacoalcos and San Luis Potosi.

She is not in the commitments of any USA events at the moment.

Maybe she is in an ALT list of Memphis or Bogota.

Yes but I know how you like to help on the board so I posted here :p

Meli will get an Acapulco WC right :bounce:

If she gets a main draw direct WC I will be very mad at them. Jessica was 100 possitions higher than Melissa's actual rank and 200 possitions higher than who was #2 last year and she didn't got a direct...

So they better make the pre-qualy stupid event or justify in a very very nice way her entry...

But still long time to go ;)

Who would they give a wildcard to other than Mexicans?

They should support their own players! Meli better get a md WC! :fiery:

Melissa definetely gets a WC in Acapulco...

Moyà y Dementieva encabezarán Abierto Mexicano


MEXICO DF (Reuters) - El español Carlos Moyà y la rusa Elena Dementieva partirán como los favoritos del Abierto Mexicano de Tenis, que se jugará entre el 24 de febrero y el 2 de marzo en la localidad mexicana de Acapulco, dijo el jueves la organización de la competición.


"Estamos seguros de que se verá un gran tenis, de primer nivel, pues estarán los campeones defensores del título y otros jugadores de gran calidad como (el argentino) David Nalbadian", dijo Lisette Trepaud, directora del comité organizador.


Esta será la décima edición del Abierto Mexicano, que se juega en canchas de arcilla y repartirá premios por 750.000 dólares en la competición masculina y 275.000 dólares en la femenina.


La preclasificación en la categoría de hombres la encabezará el español Carlos Moyà, número cinco en la lista de la Asociación de Tenistas Profesionales (ATP) y campeón del torneo azteca en el 2002.


Por detrás de Moyà estarán el argentino Nalbandian (12), el chileno Fernando González (17), el argentino Gastón Gaudio (21) y el chileno Marcelo Ríos (24).


Otros preclasificados serán los argentinos José Acasuso, Guillermo Coria, Mariano Zabaleta, Agustín Calleri, Franco Squillari; los españoles David Ferrer, Fernando Vicente, David Sánchez, Alberto Martín, Félix Mantilla y Albert Montañes.


También estarán el chileno Nicolás Massú, los brasileños Andrés Sá y Fernando Meligeni, el coreano Hyung Taik Lee, el estadounidense Vincent Spadea y el bielorruso Vladimir Voltckov.


En el torneo femenino, la número uno será la rusa Elena Dementieva, número 20 en la WTA, y que se enfrentará con la actual campeona del torneo, la eslovena Katarina Srebotnik.


Además estarán las sudafricanas Amanda Coetzer y Joannette Kruger, las argentinas Paola Suárez y Mariana Díaz Oliva, las españolas Anabel Medina, Magüi Serna, Virginia Ruano Pascual, Cristina Torrens Valero y Marta Marrero.


Completan la preclasificación la francesa Emilie Loit, la suiza Emmanuelle Gagliardi, las italianas Adriana Serra y Tathiana Garbin, las alemanas Barbara Rittner, Martina Muller y Angelika Roesh, la colombiana Fabiola Zuluaga, la sueca Asa Svensson, la austríaca Patricia Wartush y la paraguaya Rossana Neffa-de los Ríos.


El comité organizador aceptó otorgar un par de invitaciones a los campeones mexicanos Miguel Gallardo y Melissa Torres.


Por otra parte, Trepaud anunció que en esta edición no estará presente la rusa Anna Kournikova, quien había sido el atractivo en las últimas dos ediciones.


Tampoco acudirá el brasileño Gustavo "Guga" Kuerten.*.

omg :rolleyes: they are ridicolous :rolleyes:

Gallardo the I dont win Davis Cup matches...
and Melissa who is not top 300...
I will be glad to see them...

FMT got mad when Angelica didn't want to play Mexican events and Fed Cup when she was active, now I know why :rolleyes:

And most ridicolous is that they give it to the winners of the National Championshpis...

Gallardo who didnt had to beat any "top" mexican and Torres who only had to face Karin Palme.

Pfff, they are unfair. They should make a Gallardo vs Amador and Torres vs Fernandez and see who win :rolleyes:

They obviously got scared from last year that the top Mexican players didnt want to play because of their stupidity... O well good luck to Both Gallardo and Melissa, sure they will use the opportunity. At least Im sure Melissa wont be double baggeled like Gallardo ;) :angel:

Now I wonder who will get the other Mexican WC, Probably Daniela Muñoz for being the only one to win a title ;) (10k)

Oh I forgot, Thanks Emilio ;)!

:wavey: , Alex

I'm mad still :mad:

Not mad for Melissa or Miguel, they are #1 and they worked for it and they deserve it cos they are the best but I hate rules to be broken :mad:

If they have some respect they will give the other WC to Erika Valdes (unless they give it to some latin as they love to do). and the qualy WC to Palme, Clarke, Muñoz and Rivero.

If they dont do that and give a WC to Maria Jose then I will know that you only need money and influences to get WC ;)

Come on Karin get into MD and let me watch you on T.V. :hearts:

You'll get to watch Meli on TV :D

Vamos Melissa! :D

Yes, hopefully they move her to second day like they did with Valdes last year :p

I prefer to watch Karin Palme even if she is double baggeled :hearts:

will they show this on tv in Mexico? If so what channel?

Is she ever going to enter an event :fiery:

no

:p

I just received answer from Bogota...

The only Mexican who used 3 minutes of her time to sign in for a tournament before Acapulco was Karin Palme. She is commited to play Bogota, but is doubtfull she makes the trip as she is 35 in the ALT list...

So Melissa probably would have done the qualy draw if she had wanted...

O well all Mexican girls will be rusty and will get double baggeled :) they are so intelligent :D!

I guess she's too good for challengers now?

yeah, her Acapulco performance says it all ;)
