Not much to say about this match, clearly showed Serena felt more like heading to Melbourne and having some extra rest, so she really didn’t put up a huge fight, but anyway it’s a wise decission and it will certainly pay off at the AO2009, and a SF result is not that bad 
RESULT : SF Elena Dementieva d. (1) Serena Williams 63 61
