Vera Zvonareva into Semifinals at Australian Open

Australian Open - Women's Quarterfinal

2 Vera Zvonareva d 25 Petra Kvitova - 62 64

Let's hear it for Vera - she's into her 3rd straight Slam Sf: 2-0.

This is her 4th trip to a Slam Sf & 2nd at the Aussie Open - she lost in '09.

Vera: Every single match is very difficult...  and she's very tough opponent.

So I was trying to keep to stick to my game plan and what I had to do today.

I was trying to stay aggressive, and just keep fighting.
