The Israeli woman Shahar Peer was stopped by the Anna Chakvetadze

It was quite a feat for Shahar Peer to advance to the quarterfinals of US Open. Perhaps she need to try again next time to do even better. Coincidentally, Anna Chakvetadze from Russia will be playing against her country mate, the World No.4 Svetlana Kuznetsova. The other semifinals will be between the 2003 winner Justine Henin and and 2 time US Open champion Venus Williams. My guess for the woman finalists will most probably be Venus vs Kuznetsova. I feel that Henin is good but this is US Open, Venus definitely has the advantage of home ground and home crowd supporters.
