Mixed day for the French
NEW YORK. Nov 18 : Nathalie Tau-ziat kept it simple. and that kept Amanda Coetzer from reaching the quarterfinals of the seasonending Chase Championships, reports AP.
Tauzlat became the second French woman to win a first-round match when she upset the fourth-seeded Coetzer 6-3, 6-3 Monday night in the two million tournament at Madison Square Garden. Earlier. Mary Pierce overpowered Belgium's Sabine Appelmans 6-3, 6-4.
The French mystique finally ended in the last match of the evening when No. 8 Irina Spir-lea of Romania knocked off Sandrine Testud of France 6-3,
tauziat played her game to perfection, keeping the diminutive Coetzer bounding along the baseline from sideline to sideline, then throwing in a drop shot for a change of pace. Coetzer even reached a few. but on many of them she simply watched as the ball plopped over the net for a winner.
The South African reached as high as No. 3 in the rankings. She handed Steffi Graf all three of her losses this year, and handed top-ranked Martina Hingis one of her four defeats.
But on the Garden carpet, -it was Tauziat who prevailed over Coetzer. When she blocked a backhand into a wide-open court on match point. Tauziat appeared to point her finger right at Coetzer and screamed. When Tauziat realised Coetzer was in her pointing line, she quickly embraced her oppo-
"No. I just wanted to point to some friends and my coach, Alexandra Fusai, my doubles partner." Tauziat said. I was pleased to share my victory with them. That’s it. Simple."
Tauziat began by winning the first three games, breaking Coetzer at love in the second game. That's all it took for her to win the first set.
In the second set. Coetzer won the first two games, then lost the next two. After she held from deuce in the fifth game.
She would win no more as Tauziat claimed a spot in the quarters.
The Pierce Power Show was simply smashing at the Garden. It also was a winner.
After being ousted in the fourth round of the US Open by Monica Seles. Pierce was felled by a kidney infection. She returned to the Corel WTA Tour two weeks ago in Chicago, only to be surprised by 16-year-old Serena Williams, the younger sister of US Open finalist Venus Williams.
Pierce then pulled out of last week's Advanta Championships, claiming she hadn't fully recovered from her Illness.
The No. 7 seed appeared to be in top shape against Appelmans. who now can take off on a delayed honeymoon. The Belgian left-hander was married several weeks ago.
Disdaining any attempt at changing pace. Pierce blasted away from both sides, giving Appelmans more than she could handle.
At one point. Appelmans appeared to get back in the game, but Pierce quickly closed off that notion to advance into the last eight of the elite 16-player finale. Her next opponent will
be the winner of Tuesday s match pitting top seed Martina Hingis against big-serving Brenda Schultz-McCarthy of the Netherlands.
Tauziat will play either No. 6 Iva Majoll of Croatia or Germany's Anke Huber, while Splr-lea's next opponent will be either third-seeded Lindsay Davenport or fellow American Mary Joe Fernandez.
