Second-ranked Victoria Azarenka set up a Wimbledon semifinal against Serena Williams by beating unseeded Tamira Paszek of Austria 6-3, 7-6 (4) Tuesday, despite failing twice to serve out the match.
In a match that was moved from Court 1 to the roof-covered Centre Court because of a series of rain delays, Azarenka was broken for the first time when leading 5-4 in the second set. She broke right back but then wasted a second opportunity to serve it out, before converting her second match point in the tiebreaker when Paszek sent a backhand long.
Azarenka, who won this year's Australian Open, reached the semifinals for the second straight year. She will face Williams, who ousted defending champion Petra Kvitova.
