Man, I thought for sure both Monfils and Soderling would take at least one set from their opponents.

Booooring.

Zvonareva beats Wozniacki in a very clean match to reach the final. Vera played very well and broke five strings to boot. Up next, Clijsters versus Williams. It should be a good one.

Great match by Kim - she really buckled down after the first set.

I'd like to see Zvonareva take it. She seems nice.

And I'd love it if Rafa can stop Federer, but I think Fed's got the edge in play so far. Fortunately for Nadal, the psychological edge is on his side. Either way, I hope that final shapes up for Sunday.

Nooooooo...Djokovic just broke Federer and now he serves for the match.

This is after Federer missed 2 match points on Djokovic's serve

Doesn't really matter. Nobody is going to beat Nadal with the way he is playing. He will get the career grand slam on Sunday.

Holy crap that was amazing. Props to Djokovic.

At least I don't have to watch Federer get slaughtered tomorrow and have all the Nadal fans talk about how H2H is everything.

Djokovic will be exhausted. I think he'll be lucky to even take a set from Nadal. The career grand slam is his.

But, wow, what a match this afternoon.

And soon...the women's final. Both are great ladies. It's hard to pick a favorite because they are just great all-around people. However, Clijsters has always been a favorite of mine, so ...

So sad. We are seeing the downturn to Federer's career. Best tennis player in history.

I'm rooting for Clijsters. She must be the sweetest female tennis player ever. Total class act.
