Big games tonight with the Williams sisters en route to another all Williams final. Venus takes on Elena Dementieva, with Serena facing Dinara Safina.

Hard to see Safina getting past, unless she can shut down her notorious mental fadeouts at crucial times, but reckon that Dementieva is a chance of the upset in her game...

Yeah, that's why MUTE is such a useful button on the remote control!

The longer the game goes, the more Williams will be in peril. She moves with the grace of a three-legged giraffe. Stamina could be a real issue for her.

Elena is a very good animal! I think it's the overbite that does it for me. :heart:
At least her grunts are no sustained. :-s

Terrific match with Serena winning 8-6 in the third.

Venus cruised through to make it another all Williams final beating Safina 6-0 6-1 who quite frankly is dreadful when it gets to this stage of tournaments. Needs a lot of work IMO.

Looking forward to Fed Vs Haas tonight.
