Dementieva 2-0 Jankovic
Jankovic gets off the mark, with one delicate drop shot suggesting she is finding her range.
Dementieva 2-0 Jankovic
Dementieva holds with ease as Jankovic completely fails to make any impression. Early days but these are worrying signs for the Serbian.
Dementieva 1-0 Jankovic
An impressive start from Dementieva sees the Russian break straight away. Jankovic struggles for any early rhythm on a surprisingly sunny Arthur Ashe Stadium, bearing in mind the weather forecast. We are assured rain is coming tomorrow.
1949: The world number six and Olympic champion takes on the world number two in the first of the women's semis. This weekend represents a huge opportunity for one of these two to land a first Grand Slam title, and possibly the world number one ranking. The pair have met seven times, with Jankovic leading 4-3 overall and 3-2 on hard courts. It's a tough one to call.
