The Swiss Federation Cup players, Emmanuelle Gagliardi and Miroslava Vavrinec, have both been knocked out of the $110,000 Budapest Grand Prix.

Gagliardi went down to the sixth-seeded Hungarian, Rita Kuti-Kis, in her rain-delayed first round match, losing out in a tiebreak in the third set.

There were no such heroics from Vavrinec as she lost to Cristina Torrens-Valero in straight sets, 6-3, 6-0 in the second round.
