Hi all. We're open for business again, with two women's semifinals to come shortly - Elena Dementieva versus Serena Williams, followed by Vera Zvonareva versus Dinara Safina. The first of the men's semifinals, involving Andy Roddick and Roger Federer, is the first night match on Rod Laver Arena. Please keep this space for discussing the tennis, and hold any off-topic comments until it's over for the day.

As always, enjoy the tennis.
