Unseeded Roberta Vinci has done well to make it to the semifinals of the 2015 U.S. Open, but she's about to hit a brick wall, aka No. 1 seed Serena Williams. Vinci gutted out a three-set victory over No. 5 Petra Kvitova 4-6, 6-4, 6-2 on Wednesday.

As good as Kvitova is, she's no Serena.

Williams and Vinci will meet for the fifth time in their careers in one of the ladies semifinals on Thursday. After an emotional three-set win over her sister Venus Williams on Tuesday (6-2, 1-6, 6-3), Serena tweeted this heartfelt salute:

Pennetta knows she cannot match power with Halep, so expect her to utilize a finesse style to upend yet another top-five seed en route to a meeting with Williams in the finals.

 



On the men's side, the action won't start until Friday. There figures to be one really good match and a one-sided contest. Addressing the latter first, No. 1 seed Novak Djokovic has owned No. 9 Marin Cilic in his career. Djokovic is a perfect 13-0 against Cilic, and most of the matches haven't even been close.

Cilic has managed to push Djokovic to five sets just once, and he'...
