NEWS SEASON 2001

15/12/01: It seems Magüi is having some problems with the Spanish Tennis Federation. The thing is that Magüi won't play the Spanish Masters, and although the reason is to prepare well the Australian Open, the announcement of the Spanish Federation can lead to a misinterpretation of the reason. More information here.

08/12/01: Magüi won't finally play the Spanish Masters that will be played at the end of this month in Barcelona, so we'll have to wait till her first tournament next season, Sydney, to see her play again.
