At last a semi for Vika

The London rain produced some disappointments on ladies quarter final day - the Court One ticket holders were disappointed because they only saw one match plus the first game of the second match, that being the quarter final between Victoria Azarenka from Belarus and Austrian Tamira Paszek.

That disappointment was shared by Tamira when after slugging it out for a set with the number four seed, albeit losing it 3-6, Vika destroyed the Austrian to reach her first grand slam tournament semi final 6-3 6-1. Azarenka displayed all the class you would expect of an elite player at the top of her game, but she will face a reality check when the hugely talented left handed Petra Kvitova challenges her for the right to play off in this year's final.

The only people not disappointed were Azarenka and the Centre Court crowd who saw an extra match once the quarter final was shifted under the roof.
