Chinese star Zheng Jie has suffered a first-round exit after
losing to Greek Eleni Daniilidou at the Ordina Open, a grasscourt
tuneup for Wimbledon.
Zheng, who missed last week's Birmingham tournament due to
injury, was defeated in straight sets 6-4, 6-1.
Daniilidou, the 2002 champion, plays top-seeded Russian Elena
Dementieva next.
Another Chinese player, Li Na, ranked 30th in the world, will
play Ukraine's Alona Bondarenko in the first round.
