Wow, this is going to be interesting! 1 GS champ in the quarters, and she hasn't won one since '08.

I notice Vika is the early SP bandwagon, meaning... people think she'll lose her semi?

I'm hoping Azarenka, Bartoli, or Kvitova win this thing now. It'd be cool to see a new gs champ (although I have a feeling Kvitova probably has the best chance out of the three.)

She won't beat Kvitova. She might beat Pironkova.

Much as I love Petra, I want Lisicki to win. And from what I've seen from her so far, she wants to as well. Bartoli will be a tough out. But Lisicki's serve and return, together, have been at the highest level of all the players I've seen play a complete match so far.

At least six women could conceivably win this--seven if God is into big breasts, eight if God likes moles. I'm glad I'm out of it.

I hope the quality of play on the women's side remains so high. It has been the most pleasant surprise of this event. Regardless of who wins it, I hope there will be consensus that the 2011 women's champion deserved it.

There were moments today when Marion Bartoli literally SCARED me. I'm serious. SCARED me. Like, if I had a child, I would scurry the rugrat off just to make sure she didn't eat him/her. SCARED me.

There will be no doubt. The women are showing out this year.

As for Marion, I know exactly what you mean.

It was in the eyes.

Yes, Marion did look like a woman possessed today.

Go, Sabine!

It will be an interesting story, no matter who wins. But, Lisicki's would be the greatest to me.

Just to help me get myself organized, here's how I would feel if each remaining contender won:

Lisicki:
Marion:
Maria:
Kvitova:
Azarenka:
Cibulkova: , followed by
Paszek:
Pironkova:

And for the men:

Fed:
Murray:
Rafa:
Novak:
Tsonga:
F-Lo:
Tomic:
Mardy:

Not a hater, but I'm a Fed fan. Also, I am a man. Can't say that enough.

I'm a little surprised by the consensus of love for Sabine.

I fine with it. I'm just a little surprised.

Credit to a young lady who has managed to be around this long and hasn't managed to say the wrong thing in a heavily edited post-match presser, or tweet or FB something that enraged the masses. Seriously, that's probably worth something. She seems very universally adored. I hope it stays that way. She really does seem like an awfully good sort.

Maybe because she had a tough year with injury and it is nice to see her on the comeback trail.

Actually ... it just means this will be her match she withdraws from

Hmmm I'm kinda meh as to who I want to win, and don't really have an issue with any of them. I'm kinda with you on Lisicki as well though. She seem to really want it, and while Marion will be tough I think Lisicki's serve and return should pull this out. I think her and Petra in the final will be a great one. As well as a Pova/Kvitova should be interesting.

ME TOO! I'm shocked did not realized you loved Fed. WOOOT!!!

Not a hater of Rafa either (well the feeling comes and goes) but I'm more lover than hater.

I'd love Bartoli to win out of the remaining field, honestly.

I love Marion the most of all left so I really should want her to win, but I'm not getting my hopes up.

I feel for her dad alone there in the box. WOW so sad.
