THOUGHT I'D POST THIS BECAUSE DOW CONSIDERS IT MORE IMPORTANT THAN BUSINESS NEWS: Symbol(s) 4550 & Date Use Page Up, Page Down, +, -, or press U -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 05/06 3:34P (DJ) SportsTicker: Rios Ousted, Rain Causes Delays At German Open Story 4550 (N/DJN, N/DJWI, N/SPT, N/TNS) Top seed Marcelo Rios of Chile, showing signs of rust after his injury-induced layoff, was upset today in the second round of the $2.2 million German Open in Hamburg, the fourth Super 9 tennis event of the year. Rios, who was atop the world rankings for a four-week span before an inflamed left elbow knocked him out of play, fell to South African Wayne Ferreira, 3-6, 6-4, 6-3. Rios took the number one player in the world from American Pete Sampras when he won the Lipton Championships, but lost it to Sampras when he was unable to defend his Monte Carlo Open championship two weeks ago. Today's schedule was cut short due to rain, postponing six matches with seeded players, including number four Alex Corretja of Spain and sixth-seeded Karol Kucera of Slovakia. Sixteenth seed Goran Ivanisevic of Croatia, playing under the covered center court, is trailing Nicolas Lapentti of Ecuador, 4-6, 3-1, in the final match of the day. Rios, who has three titles this year, lost for just the fourth time in 29 matches in 1998, but it was his second early exit of the year. The Chilean also lost to Brett Steven in the first round of the Dubai Tennis Open and had a 12-match winning streak snapped. In the first match of the day, third seed Yevgeny Kafelnikov's claycourt woes continued as Austrian Thomas Muster handed the Russian a 6-4, 6-2
