It's been a long wait for a British male Grand Slam winner, going all the way back to 1936. But Andy
Murray's strong showing in this year's US Open gives the British hope that their long losing run may
finally come to an end. In his quarter final match-up against Juan Martin Del Potro, Murray gained the
ascendancy in winning the opening 2 sets in tie-breaks. Although Del Potro fought back to take the
third set, Murray was able to lift his game in the 4th set to take the match and progress through to the
semi finals.
Murray's semi final opponent will be top seed Rafael Nadal. Nadal suffered an early scare when he
dropped the first set against unseeded American Mardy Fish, but regrouped to win the next three
sets.
Dinara Safina progressed through to the semi finals, with a straight sets win over Flavia Pennetta.
Also going through was Serena Williams, after taking 2 tiebreaks against older sister Venus.
