FRENCH LOST BOTH SINGLES IN THE FIRST DAY

DALLAS, USA -- Monica Seles of United States overcame some inclement weather to successfully defeat Mary Pierce in the first match between France and USA.

Seles needed one hour and 18 minutes to defeat french number two 7:6(0) 6:1 on Wedensday .

"It was difficult to play, it was windy and cold," said Seles , who is number one in the world and Us Open champion . "I was very calm and I didn't want to take any risks and she wanted to go fast. She made a lot of mistakes and didn't play her best tennis."

"The weather conditions were difficult," admitted Pierce . "I'm disappointed because I had so many chances and just didn't take them. She played the biggest points better and that made the difference. I did not play well enough and I'm not happy because I wanted to win with her ."

In the second match Amelie Mauresmo lost to Venus Willaims in two sets and US takes 2:0 lead after the first day .

RUSSIA - SPAIN 1:1

MOSCOW, RUSSIA - Conchita Martinez beat young russian star Dinara Safina 6:2 6:2 in the opening match in Moscow .

Safina , ranked No. 4 in Russia, moved out to a 2-0 lead in the first , but Spanish veteran came back and won 6 games in row .

After trading breaks early in the second set, Martinez won three straight points to take a commanding 3:2 lead. Trailing 3-5 and at 30-30 on her serve in the ninth game, Safina committed her 12th double fault and then hit a backhand into the net, losing the set and match.

``I had lots of chances and I did not take them, I should have won the second set,'' Safina said. ``It's sad to lose so quickly , but I didn't play well.

In the second match, Anasatscia Myskina won in two sets and defeated Luxemburg champion Arantxa Sanchez-Vicario .

``Actually, it was the tough match . I beat her in Moscow this year but that was 3 set battle . Today i was hitting the ball all right in the decisive moments '' said Myskina .
