DelPo has now beaten the #1 player in the world 10 times, a record for the most without becoming #1 himself.

Makes it even more of a shame that Thiem didn't win the previous round. Could have been a really good match here.

Oh man, why do we get Cliff Drysdale on commentary for the 2nd semi-final, I'd much prefer Robbie Koenig.

Cliff should have been put out to pasture a while ago. Unfortunately I think Robbie does Aussie commentary, so TSN doesn't get that stream.

Nishikori is playing pretty well but he's down a set and a break. I think Novak is back to 100%, hopefully Delpo shows up Sunday should be a really good match if he does.

No way I'm watching Nishikori with Drysdale talking. Just kill me first.

We were talking about easy draws. If Djokovic wins tomorrow, that's a pretty cupcake draw

Sandgren
Gasquet
Sousa
Millman
Nishikori

Perhaps it's a cakewalk for Serena, but kudos to both women. I don't see Naomi backing down and will try to do some damage with her serve.

That said, I would love to see a sweet moment with Serena and her daughter if she wins. Kind of like Kim Clijsters and little Jada.

Early break for Naomi. Serena looks slightly nervous, but no doubt she’ll find her groove.

Who's intimidating who? Serena's totally flustered. Cant make a 1st serve.

That was Osaka's 10th set of 6-2 or less in the tournament.
