Really enjoyable match between Karolina and Garbine,what I liked about Garbine was she didnt go away,Karolina was to serve for the match in the 2nd set and was broken,another t/break which was close,Garbine double faulted and Karolina won the match 7-6(2) 7-6(5).Karolina will play Sveta in the semi final.

I watched the final half hour or so. Good match. i got the giste that Garbine carrying a niggling injury from the coaching timeout but couldn't really see much evidence of that on court.

Venus down 5-2 in the final set, and she's showing absolute grit. Maybe not feeling her best, but she is fighting for it.
