Radwanska is out, and Genie's draw is wide open all of a sudden. Could be another semi-final but Genie obviously needs to win today first.

Also Genie and Milos figure to be playing at the same time today (around 930-10 am MT), so TSN and TSN2 will be showing both matches.

I was interested in watching Milos play ... but I just can't with that commentator. Australian accents are just the worst.

Big mental test for Milos now, let's see if he can step it up as the crowd grows more and more against him. Genie is down 2-4 and her opponent doesn't have a single winner yet....

Milos needs to relax. He looks annoyed and flustered already. It's early, just compose yourself and chill out.

Genie fights back from facing Larsson serving for the set to win the 1st 7-5. I know she's got the mental game, Milos up a break in the 2nd seems to be fighting it a bit more.

She is a tough competitor. I wonder what her ceiling is? Seems like she has Sharapova like potential.

Genie's only true weakness right now is her serve (more importantly her second serve). If she figures that out she can absolutely be a #1 player someday.

Nice second set for Milos, that's what we wanna see.

Milos has twice as many winners and four times as many errors. Simon up a break in the 3rd.

And I just talked about Genie's mental game and she shows it again. Gets broken with a chance to serve out the match, immediately breaks right back to close it out 7-5, 6-4.

Simon just has to patiently return until Milos hits it into the net.

Time for Milos to dig very deep. Gonna take a supreme effort now.

Great stuff from Genie. She's definitely turned a corner with her mental game. Atta girl!

Milos is disintegrating in this third set right now. Here's to hoping he can put in behind him and focus on the fourth.
