Goran grinds Dinu down
WIMBLEDON, June 23: Second-seeded Goran Ivanisevic raced to a straight-set victory in just over an hour
Monday as Wimbledon started on time before the first rain delay sent players scurrying off the courts, reports AP.
The left-handed Croat served 24 aces in a 6-1. 6-3. 6-3 triumph over Dinu Pescariu, finishing his match in 64 minutes on Court 2 before play started on the two stadium courts, Centre and No. 1.
Other early winners were women's No. 12 Irina Spirlea of Romania, who scored a 6-1, 6-0 victory over Henrieta Nagyova of Slovakia in 46 minutes; and Bulgaria's Magdalena Maleeva, who downed Britain's Julie Pullin 6-1, 6-3.
They were the first results before rain arrived just 15 minutes before the opening ceremony for the new No . 1 Court, an 11,000 capacity arena built over the past two years to replace the 7,000-seater No. 1 court which is in the process of demolition.
The first shower lasted only 15 minutes and didn't hold up the ceremony, which was attended by 10 players who had won Wimbledon titles three times or more.
The men's champions were Rod Laver, John Newcombe. John McEnroe, Boris Becker and Pete Sampras. The women's titlists were Louise Brough, Margaret Court. Billie Jean King. Chris Evert and Martina Navratilova.
Later in the day Aussie bomber Mark Philippoussis and local hero Greg Rusedski were set to face each other on Centre Court in what could shape up as a spectacular shootout on grass.
Line judges, ball boys and ball girls were braced to duck and dive to avoid their missiles which have been timed at around 140 mph.
The 6-foot-3 (1.92;metre)
Rusedski had the record fastest serve before 6-foot-4 (1.94 metre) Philippoussis took it from him. Now the British left-hander has the chance to get the mark back in front of a home town crowd on Centre Court, as well as knock the No. 7 seed out of the championship.
Both were in title-winning form going into Wimbledon. Rusedski won the Nottingham Open on Saturday, six days af-ter Philippoussis triumphed in
the more prestigious Queen’s Club event.
Their power-packed meeting came after defending titlist Richard Krajicek, even taller at 6-foot-5 (1.96-metre), began with a match against Marcello Craca of Germany, who was playing his first Grand Slam tournament.
Krajicek, who became the first Dutchman to win a Grand Slam when he triumphed last year, went Into the championship after a victory at another grass court event at Ros-malen Sunday, when he beat Guillaume Raoux of France in straight sets.
The bad news for his Wimbledon rivals was that Krajicek didn't drop his serve once in the Rosmalen tournament. At Wimbledon last year he only
lost one set and he's a dangerous opponent when he is consistent.
He also thought he was better on grass this year.
"I have much more confidence playing on grass and Just feel much better on this surface." he said. "Last year, before going to Wimbledon. I Just didn't feel good on grass and this year I feel very happy, very loose and really enjoying playing on grass."
Sampras, who lost to Krajicek in last year’s quarterfinal after winning the title three years in a row. is not in action until Tuesday when the No. 1 seed faces Mikael Tillstrom of Sweden.
With Steffi Graf absent through injury, the women's competition didn't have a defending champion. Top seed Martina Hingis, beaten only once this year, faces qualifier Anne Kremer of Luxembourg on Tuesday while No. 2 seed Monica Seles was in action Monday against Australia's Rachel Mc-. Quillan.
French Open champion Iva Majoli met Mariana Diaz Oliva of Argentina.
The opening match on the 11,000-capacity No. 1 court featured Britain's first seeded player in 15 years. 14th seed Tim Henman.
The 22-year-old Englishman zoomed from 99 to 25 in last year's rankings and continued his improvement early this year until a wrist surgery halted his climb.
He was under the pressure of an adoring British public Monday when he faced Canada's Daniel Nestor, who lost in the first round last year but has beaten Philippoussis on grass.
Following them on court were 1991 Wimbledon champion Michael Stich and 1993 runner up Jim Courier, both unseeded this time.
Gustavo Kuerten, surprise winner of the French Open two weeks ago and seeded 11 here, met American Justin Gimel-stob, a promising product of the USTA Development program.
