The Bryan brothers are doing their mirror-twin thing out on Centre Court.
Pospisil/Sock and Benneteau/Roger-Vasselin are going deep on court two.
Michael Chang, Ross Hutchens, Mark Philippoussis, Tracy Austin, Lindsay Davenport and Anne Keothavong are all still to come in the invitational knockabouts.
All the talk has been of a potential Williams v Williams final, but Elena Vesnina will be looking to put a stop to that. She was in scintillating form as she put away Dominika Cibulkova with ease to set up a semi-final clash with Serena.

Tomorrow you ask? Well you might.
It is men's quarter-finals day and this is how it is going to pan out.
She was seeing the ball the size of a football. Everything was flowing, she was hitting her groundstrokes beautifully and she really dedicated the play.
Game, set and match Vesnina
Cibulkova 2-6 2-6 Vesnina
Elena Vesnina's not mucking about. Three match points already.
One simple ace down the middle and the semi-final place is hers! Vesnina looked very impressive out there. She'll now face Serena Williams in the last four.
At least Dominika Cibulkova can walk down the aisle on Saturday now...

Jonathan Hextall: Aaayyyaaaa and peeeoww currently on no.1 court attempting to reach the semis for the first time.
This did make me laugh. Cibulkova (peeoww) and Vesnina (aaayyyya) make some remarkable noises during play.

Cibulkova 2-6 2-5 Vesnina*
Dominika Cibulkova seems to have found her stride, but it's a bit late now.
The Slovak holds to love but Elena Vesnina is up out of her seat to serve for the match.
Post update
*Cibulkova 2-6 1-5 Vesnina
Dominika Cibulkova gets down low on her knees as she places a winner just over the net to take Elena Vesnina to deuce.
But the Russian doesn't lose her cool and recovers to hold serve. She's now one game away from her first Grand Slam semi-final.
Serena's winning moment ...
There's not too much time for Serena to bask in the glory of her victory, as she heads off to play a doubles match with her sister. But here's the moment she saw off Pavlyuchenkova in straight sets to progress to the semi-finals

John McEnroe
Three-time Wimbledon singles champion on BBC TV
"A lot of people are pulling for Venus to win one more Wimbledon final. She's won this competition five times, and it's often forgotten because of how dominant her sister has been. It's as though she's an after-thought."
Post update
Serena Williams speaking to BBC TV: "It was good. I am excited to be able to win and get through, it felt really good.
"I knew Venus was up 5-1 and then I saw on the court so I was like 'yey'.
"I am just trying to win my match. I knew I had a tough opponent and one thing I have learnt this year is just to focus on the match.
"We (her and Venus) don't really talk too much about it but we are playing doubles later so we are just happy to be in the semi-finals.
"It will be great (if they are both in final). Venus is such a tough opponent I want her to win so bad, not in the final if i am there, but if I am not I do."

"The great players seize the moment better than their opponents. Pavlyuchenkova seized up at 4-4 in both sets and Serena pounced."

Serena Williams pirouettes to all sides of Centre Court, waving her appreciation for a standing ovation.

Cibulkova 2-6 1-4 Vesnina*
Elena Vesnina, the slight 29-year-old Russian, is full of power and prowess and Dominika Cibulkova is struggling to contain her.
Vesnina has two more break points, which she fails to convert, and Cibulkova does eventually hold to get off the mark in the second set.

That was the intimidation factor. That is what great champions do and Serena has done it to many an opponent.
She stepped it up when she needed to and served incredibly well to take away belief and confidence from the Russian who was in the Wimbledon quarter for the first time.
It looks like a real possibility Venus could play Serena in the finals of a Grand Slam again.

Game set and match Williams
S Williams 6-4 6-4 Pavlyuchenkova
Earlier in the game, Serena Williams coughed up a double fault, over-cooking her second serve.
Cue a quizzical look at the line judge.
And the appropriate riposte. A ripped ace barging down the T and out of reach to close the match out.

Serena breaks
*S Williams 6-4 5-4 Pavlyuchenkova
Serena Williams broke in the ninth game of the first set before serving out in the next.
The second set is following that same template. Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova's racquet arm tightens and a clumsy swat into the net hands over the first of two break points.
