US Open tennis timetable 2010 & results: Williams to fight Clijsters in semi

US Open tennis schedule 2010 & results: Williams to fight Clijsters in semis. Venus Williams, last American trust in the ongoing U.S. Open is to get on Kim Clijsters in the semifinals on Friday. All American hopes drop upon Venus as their star player Andy Roddick was knocked out in the first rounds of the tournament.
Venus has not exposed any of her plans while fighting the Belgian player in the semifinal. She often shied away from media questions on her plans in the game. “Win the point” and “perform my game” were her normal responses when asked about the approaching face-off.

Outside Venus, the only American presences in the U.S. Open are the Bryan brothers and a boy called Jack Sock in the junior level. It heightens Venus’ force to win for the arrogance of the country.

The African-American tennis player has faced Clijsters twelve times in the past. Out of which both the players grabbed six victories respectively. “I don’t really know her that well as a person,” Williams said. “I see her around, and she always seems pretty pleasant.”Venus advanced into the semifinals domineeringly successful the Italian Francesca Schiavone 7-6, 6-4 in just two hours. The quarterfinal match will provide Venus some extra energy. She has triumphed over Schiavone seven times before. “I like seeing my name against hers,” Venus said after the memorable quarterfinal victory.

In the meantime, for Clijsters quarterfinal win was not a memorable event. She could just manage the victory out of luck more. The Belgian player was found suffering more than most in the swirling wind during her matchup beside the Australian Sam Stosur.

Even Clijsters was astonished at her 6-4, 5-7, 6-3 win over her strong opponent. “I didn’t play a good match,” she said after the match. “I said to my coach: ‘Wow, what just happened? How did I win?’ Next match, everything will have to be a lot better.”
