http://www.atptennis.com/en/newsandscores/news/news/vina5.asp FEB. 14, 2003 Rios, Gaudio to Clash Chile's own Marcelo Rios will take on top seed Gaston Gaudio in Saturday's semifinals. Chile's own Marcelo Rios powered his way to the semifinals at the Bellsouth Open by Rosen, earning a satisfying win over Argentine Agustin Calleri in Friday's quarterfinals. Although this is Rios' first event of the year, the third seeded Chilean says his game is at a peak, and his motivation is strong to capture his astonishing 19th career singles title in his home country. In a superstar South American clash, Rios now meets top seed Gaston Gaudio, who overcame Spain's Felix Mantilla in another quarterfinal match. Also on Friday, Albert Montanes defeated Jiri Vanek to earn a place in the final four against fellow Spaniard David Sanchez, a three-set victor over Andrea Gaudenzi. WHAT THE PLAYERS SAID Rios: "I feel I can win the tournament. I'm going step by step. But I'm playing really well and I have a lot of motivation to win this event.I'm looking forward to playing good tennis tomorrow. I have a strong desire to play a lot of tennis." About tomorrow's match "It's obviously going to be very difficult. Mantilla's level of tennis is very high and everyone knows how well Gaudio plays." Calleri: "The match wasn't a very good match maybe to watch, because my strategy was to not let Rios play good tennis. I tired to make him uncomfortatble, but my shots were going a bit out. I was trying for shots, but they were going out by a few centimeters." Sanchez: (Suffering from tendinitus in his right wrist) "I want to go rest. I feel I have a good chance to make it to the final. It's going to be more difficult to play Montanes because we know each other's games well. But it's a good thing. At least one Spaniard will be in the final." -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.csie.ntu.edu.tw) ◆ From: 218.165.171.153
