Bad Gastein, Austria (Sports Network) - Rain prevented any first-round action
from being completed Monday at the $220,000 Gastein Ladies clay-court tennis
event.
Three seeds were on the Day-1 schedule, including No. 3 Russian Ksenia Pervak
and No. 4 Spaniard Carla Suarez Navarro at Hotel Europaischerhof.
Luxembourg's Mandy Minella was leading Croat Ajla Tomljanovic 6-3, 4-3 when
play was called.
The top seeds here are 2010 champion Julia Goerges of Germany and Belgian
Yanina Wickmayer. Spain's Maria Jose Martinez Sanchez beat Austria's own
Patricia Mayr-Achleitner in last year's finale.
The 2012 Bad Gastein champion will claim $37,000.
