COSTA DO SAUIPE, Brazil (AP) - Top-seeded Gaston Gaudio was upset by

Starace 6-4, 7-5, and sixth-seeded Nicolas Massu of Chile beat
Spain's Fernando Vicente 3-6, 7-6 (3), 6-3.

Hey all. Dunno if you want me to keep updating this since I think
nobody reads the threads here anymore. Anyway, Gaston is in BA and
is thought to attend the Rolling Stones show tonight, according to a
radio station I'm listening right now.

To all those Moya fans out there: I have high resolution pics from
the Buenos Aires final if you are interested. All those who want to
have them, e-mail me and I'll send them. I cannot post them because
they are too big.

Cheers!

Melu =O)
