From the fight of the dragon on the tenth match day to the focus on the eleventh match day, the 2014 US Open men's and women's singles arena finally revealed all the top four seats.

Women's singles arena.

The first half will be Serena Williams vs. Makarova. The much-anticipated "Serena Williams VS Azarenka" was not staged. This is undoubtedly embarrassing, but fortunately, the local darling Serena Williams James maintained his title hopes.

In the second half, Wozniacki played against Peng Shuai. The Danish sweetheart known as the most watery "world number one" is still chasing her first Grand Slam championship trophy, and this time she needs to beat this year's exceptionally good form Only Peng Shuai can reach the final.

Although Azarenka, Sharapova, Bouchard and other bright-looking players all stopped in the semi-finals, Wozniacki still stayed in the draw, and Serena Williams continued her strong performance in the home game. This year's women's singles semi-finals are still remarkable.

Men's singles.

The top half will be Djokovic vs Gawain.

In the focus match of the quarterfinals, the two giants met in advance. In the end, Djokovic defeated Murray in four sets and won the 21st duel between the two players. The current total record is 12 wins and 9 Negative is slightly ahead, continuing his hope of winning the championship in Flushing; and then he will face the challenge of this year's biggest dark horse at the US Open, Gao Wen.

At the post-match press conference, Djokovic was naturally asked about Gao Wen, and the world No. 1 showed his usual demeanor.

“… I watched a small portion of the third set against Stan and the final set against Guyana, he is a very competitive player and his game intelligence is definitely impressive Impressive, he was able to hit some really amazing returns, put opponents in a tight spot, and I'm sure it's going to be a tough game.

I need to rest and adjust and get ready for this game. "

Djokovic remained tight-lipped, did not leak anything, expressed his approval and expectations for Gao Wen, and then there was nothing else. Even if the reporters tried to fan the flames, Djokovic was not fooled.

Strictly speaking, this post-match press conference was much less interesting than Gao Wen's.

In the second half, Federer will face Cilic.

Cilic beat Berdych in three sets, which was a moderate upset, not because of the result of the game, but because the process of the game was much easier and faster than expected.

The two players have played against each other eight times in their careers and won four games each. The last time they met was at Wimbledon. Cilic also defeated Berdych in three sets, but that game involved two tie-breaks and the score was very close. ; so it was a bit of a surprise that Cilic won so easily this time.

Facing the powerful impact of Monfils, Federer broke into a cold sweat. After losing two sets first, he saved two consecutive match points in the fourth set. The five-set battle reversed Monfils and advanced , The soul-stirring game lasted nearly four hours, driving Arthur - Ashe Stadium into a frenzy.

In fact, Monfils has never been at a loss when facing Federer on hard courts. He has a total record of two wins and three losses. Also once forced the king to the edge of the cliff, but unfortunately it still fell short.

In the next game, Federer will face Cilic, who has won all five games and maintains an absolute advantage. The outside world is generally optimistic that Federer will go further.

This situation is so similar to Wimbledon—

Two months ago, Djokovic and Federer joined hands with two rookies Dimitrov and Raonic to occupy the semi-finals of this grass-court Grand Slam.

This is the first time that two "post-90s" players have reached the semi-finals of the Grand Slam together, and it is also a crucial event for the two giants:

Djokovic has lost three consecutive Grand Slam finals, and this year's Australian Open and French Open results are below expectations, has been looking forward to recovery, while Federer is struggling to pursue his eighteenth Grand Slam Consecutive championship trophy, continue to refresh history.

As a result, Djokovic defeated Dimitrov, Federer swept Raonic, and the two giants met in the final.

Two months later, the US Open seemed to see a similar situation again.

The pattern of "giant VS dark horse" has become the main theme of the semi-finals in the men's singles arena.

Among them, Cilic, who was born in 1988, and Djokovic, who was born in 1987, are considered to be of the same generation, but their performance is very different.

This time, Cilic has reached the top four of the Grand Slam for the second time since the Australian Open in 2010, but his performance in the US Open has always been the best. Strong, finally ushered in a breakthrough this time, once again standing in the ranks of the top four.

As for Gao Wen, there is no need to say more. The young teenagers born in 1995 set countless records for the new generation. Just as everyone was exclaiming that the rise of Dimitrov and Raonic represented the younger generation's rapid grab for power. At that time, the younger Gao Wen had already caught up.

Especially after Bencic stopped in the quarter-finals, Gao Wen is already the only player born after 1990 in the singles and doubles this year.

So, can Gawain go further and create history?

Obviously, both Djokovic and Federer will try their best to replicate Wimbledon's performance, and the second consecutive grand slam final will be held in Huashan~lightnovelpub.net~ This should also be what countless fans really want to see arrived at the situation—

Although you can't see "Federer VS Nadal", you can at least watch "Federer VS Djokovic".

But the performance of Gao Wen and Cilic is also worth looking forward to. After all, a wonderful game requires the cooperation of the two players to complete. Even if they are not expected to continue to write miracles, at least the semi-finals should meet the requirements of the Grand Slam. level.

With the bustling place, as the Grand Slam tournament entered the semi-final stage, the voice of discussion became more and more turbulent.

On the twelfth match day, Gao Wen still didn't play.

According to the daily routine, there should be a match today, but according to the US Open schedule, there will be two women's singles semi-finals today, and then both finalists will have a day to rest and adjust before starting the final match; There will be two men's singles semi-finals tomorrow, and it is also ensured that the two finalists can get a fair rest time before going to the final stage.

Correspondingly, for Serena Williams and Makarova in the upper half of the women's singles, the game just ended yesterday, and today they will continue to play. The test of physical strength is also an important issue for the Grand Slam.

Djokovic and Gao Wen in the upper half of the men's singles can rest one more day before the semi-finals. Although it is really good for Gao Wen, who has fought hard in the previous five rounds, the training rhythm of the next day's game It is also inevitably disrupted, with pros and cons.

It can be seen from here that the Grand Slam events are intricate and details determine success or failure.
