Bulgarian tennis player Magdalena Maleeva lost in the first round of the $1,185,000 Swisscom tournament in Zurich last Tuesday. The Bulgarian was beaten 2-1 in sets by fifth-seeded Nathalie Tauziat (France). Thus the 33-year-old French woman took her revenge for losing to Maleeva at the semi-final in Leipzig a month ago.
