  1. - - AZARENKA 6-3 7-6(4) - MATCH! Azarenka takes the tie-break and moves into the semi-finals! The run of quality WTA encounters today at Wimbledon continues but the pro-Paszek fans have seen the last of their heroine in a competitive context this year.

  2. - - AZARENKA 6-3 6-6 - BREAK! - She has done it again! We're going to a tie-break as some superb returns combine with an Azarenka double-fault for a fourth break game in a row.

  3. - - AZARENKA 6-3 6-5 - BREAK! - Third straight break in the set as the form of the first eight games is completely out the window. Things were looking good for Paszek but she lost her cool at 40-15 and now must do it all again to stay alive as Victoria serves for the match again.

  4. - - AZARENKA 6-3 5-5 - BREAK! - Paszek is having none of it for now, as Azarenka uses her final challenge and the Austrian breaks her to 15. Fantastic fight she is putting up when it seemed to be all over.

  5. - - AZARENKA 6-3 5-4 - BREAK! - Curse of the (online) commentator, as the Belarusian breaks to love. This could be the end of the road for the popular Paszek, as Azarenka will now serve for the match.

  6. - - AZARENKA 6-3 4-4 - Smashing stuff again from Azarenka and after eight games in the second set, there's no sign of a breakthrough just yet.

  7. - - AZARENKA 6-3 3-4 - Paszek is serving with tons of confidence now, and a sweet forehand winner caps a hold to 15. The action continues to be of a high standard and the dominance of the serve remains.

  8. - - AZARENKA 6-3 3-3 - Arguably the rally of the day so far puts Azarenka 40-0 up, and the action leaves even Paszek with a begrudging smile on her face. Ace number six for the Belarusian completes the hold to love.

  9. - - AZARENKA 6-3 2-3 - Paszek powers her way to a triple hold point, eventually converting the second of the three. Good stuff from the Austrian.

  10. - - AZARENKA 6-3 2-2 - Some solid returns from Paszek but too much inconsistency defending Azarenka's serve and it's another hold.

  11. - - AZARENKA 6-3 1-2 - Azarenka uses up a challenge call before the two battle to deuce, where a double-fault scuppers Paszek's first advantage and the net robs her of her second. But her third is not only two-handed to glory, but comes after another Azarenka challenge is used up.

  12. - - AZARENKA 6-3 1-1 - It is Azarenka now looking the least convincing in holding serve, but nonetheless that's what she does in game two of the second.

  13. - - AZARENKA 6-3 0-1 - Good initial reaction from Paszek with a sweeping hold to 15. She remains in high spirits as usual, but needs to find a way of cracking the smooth form of Azarenka.

  14. - - AZARENKA 6-3 - SET! - And there's the first set for a fully-focused Azarenka. She celebrates the final point before returning to a trance of full concentration between sets in her chair.

  15. - - AZARENKA 5-3 - BREAK! - There's the first break and a well-timed one, as Azarenka wears Paszek down with the returns and eventually forces her out on the second advantage break point.

  16. - - AZARENKA 4-3 - A pair of errant returns from Paszek cap a comfortable hold to 15.

  17. - - AZARENKA 3-3 - Paszek drops the first two points but rebounds powerfully, serving up four on the bounce to avoid any chance of a break point.

  18. - - AZARENKA 3-2 - Azarenka continues to serve better than her opponent, despite the lack of a clear advantage at the moment, and holds to love in game five.

  19. - - AZARENKA 2-2 - The Belarus player takes her sweet time deciding on challenging a Paszek advantage on deuce seven and as a result, misses out, from which point the Austrian holds to end a marathon fourth game.

  20. - - AZARENKA 2-1 - The fans are filing back into Centre Court by the shedload as Azarenka secures her second hold.

  21. - - AZARENKA 1-1 - Paszek is strong in her first service game and levels up. Good feeling-out here.

  22. - - AZARENKA 1-0 - Solid hold to begin the contest for the Belarusian on Centre Court.

  23. - - Azarenka serves first and the final women's quarter-final to get underway has finally done so.

  24. - - And so Paszek-Azarenka will finally begin soon, on Centre Court instead now with Kerber advancing.

  1. The WTA is full of money grabbing jerks..if all­ athletes would do that, the ref's wouldn't­ hear the whistle themselves ...but the big problem are­ the fans that pay good money for sportswomen like­ behavior to win at all costs...the empty chairs are the­ prove...squeaking is performance enhancing...

  2. Great Eddie:::: u got ur wish it's official vica­ against ur fav the beast Serena! Our deal is if Serena­ wins the wimbeldon I will never post on WTA again!­ Absolutely no excuses will be accepted by either­ player! Vica will destroy Serena! Great Eddie as a­ tennis fan u need to call the London police to be on­ high alert! If Serena gets violent after she loses and­ she will lose! Then she should get arrested and be­ locked up in London jail and banned from tennis­ forever! Serena has a history of getting violent­ remember us open she threatened the lines woman the she­ would choke a ball down her throat! That event cannot­ be forgotten or forgiven! She got lucky as she was in­ new York! But in London if she behaves in that manner­ she should get arrested! I know Serena fans don't­ want that but in the interest of the game London police­ should be on high alert during and after the match! ­ Have a nice day great Eddie! Cause Thursday will be a­ nitemare for Serena fans!

  3. Center court Wimbledon with all those empty seats.

    From Robert, on Tue 3 Jul 20:51

  4. c mon victoria carry n go for win.

    From Glory Samuel, on Tue 3 Jul 20:49

  5. STOP TALKING ABOUT THE SCREECHING... EEEEEEEKKKKK

    From Taufik H, on Tue 3 Jul 20:44

  6. The funny thing about Azarenka and her grunting is that­ when she is practicing she doesn't grunt at all. So­ if she doesn't do it in practice, there is no­ reason she cannot do it in a regular match. ­ It's really unfair to her opponent as it is a Big­ distraction. If I had to play her I would just retire.­ The players should all get together in a tournament and­ protest by retiring everytime they had to play her. I­ am sure that would really embarrass her.

    From Great Eddie, on Tue 3 Jul 20:26

  7. Plus she is so arogant. Her attitude is horrible. All­ that cursing and yelling at people around her when she­ gets angry.

    From BlahBlah, on Tue 3 Jul 20:23

  8. Impossible to watch with sound.

    From FB, on Tue 3 Jul 20:18

  9. OMG can anyone stop that Azarenka wailing???

    From BlahBlah, on Tue 3 Jul 20:17

  10. All the shriekers are using shrieks to intimidate the­ opponents and should be outlawed!! I truly hope that­ Paszek win this contest!!! The shrieks from Azarenka­ are just so irritating!!!

    From 008008, on Tue 3 Jul 20:02

  11. Azarenka has the power but cant serve volley. She is­ obviously a bodybuilder which raises the question of­ use of substances

    From Stephen, on Tue 3 Jul 19:55

  12. YES 2 -2

    From Stephen, on Tue 3 Jul 19:52

  13. Why should the world tennis authorities make a firm­ decision on women players using the squeak as long as­ fools pay to watch the squeakers and sponsorship money­ rolls in? im turning the game off hoping that Azarenka­ loses and gets tonsilitis

    From Stephen, on Tue 3 Jul 19:48

  14. If aplayer makes an involuntary squeak when hitting the­ ball couldnot a player with hay fever sneeze at the­ right times and plead innonence

    From Stephen, on Tue 3 Jul 19:43

  15. The best thing that happened to Vicka was losing the­ French. It woke her from half a year of sleep! Azarenka­ stopped fighting and scrapping after she became no.1.­ That lose woke her and gave her new ambition. Vicka­ needs chalenges to be on her top form. Just being no.1­ is boring for her and will not make her play hard.

    From Zvi, on Tue 3 Jul 19:39

  16. congrats vic..............im not fan of vic.but i like­ all the women tennis players..............most probably­ serena im a avid fan of serena ....................and­ i hope vic and serena will face in­ semi..............cos i know vic is another serena in­ the future....

    From rodentor l, on Tue 3 Jul 17:21

  17. Congratulation to Victoria!! Back to NO.1 in the ­ world even if she loses today. Maria lost a lot of­ points and put Vika back in NO.1 !

    From Zvi, on Tue 3 Jul 15:01

  18. It's gonna be an interesting match! Azarenka is­ really good player, but not invincible. So...good luck­ Tamira, you can beat her!

    From Tamara, on Tue 3 Jul 14:55

  19. I think Paszek can beat Azarenka. I hope she does. I­ think it's time to eliminate the other grunter. Go­ Tamira!

    From Great Eddie, on Tue 3 Jul 12:03

  20. C'mon Tamira! Believe u can do it!
