Roger Federer beats Mischa Zverev 6-1, 7-5, 6-2 in straight sets.
...
Forehand winner to finish.

Game, set and match Roger Federer.
...
Zverev makes a mighty effort to challenge Federer and takes it to break point.

Federer follows that up with an ace to take it to deuce.
...
What a time for an ace. Federer serves for the match. And brings a speedy forehand out.
...
And after an arudously long game, Federer FINALLY breaks! He leads 5-2 in the third and is serving for the match.
...
It's the ninth deuce here. Number nine... number nine... John Lennon would be proud. 
...
Roger Federer's at full stretch here - and Mischa Zverev comes to the net. It's at deuce again.....
...
Forehand winner, winner, champions' dinner? After some serious back-and-forth, Federer creates another break opportunity.
...
How impressive/scary is Roger Federer's lob? We bet Mischa Zverev will attest to that....
...
Federer gets the first break of the third set! 
...
And that ball looked like it was going OUT .....but just when he thought it was out, he pulled it back in!
...
What a rally! You have to applaud Mischa Zverev right there for his attacking tennis today and he engages Federer for quite a while.
...
What a shot! He's not known as the greatest for nothing .
...
Federer's shots are pacey, something Zverev's lack. But he's more than making up for it with some big strong serves here and Federer's committing a few errors...
...
And SHOT! Federer runs to the net and ends it with a forehand volley. And a shot that's in by an absolute milimetre gets him the point - and he finishes that off to take the second set! 

Federer now leads two sets to love.
...
And there's an error from Zverev - his first one in the set. Federer sends a speedy ace across the court and that's done! 
...
Both players are at the net and on the attack! 
...
And an ACE down the line from Zverev gives him the lead, albeit on serve. Inspired tennis! 
...
That was a classic tennis rally and a half. Zverev is matching Federer on athleticism here and then some, and playing some vintage Federer-type shots in the process. Tennis fans win.
...
Couple of passing shots from both players and they're locked in a good rally. There's a forehand lob from Zverev that goes past Federer, but the Swiss is in no mood to let breaks march up on him. He breaks back.
...
BREAK POINT for Zverev!! This net approach is really helping Mischa Zverev, and it gives him the break of serve in the second.
...
As predicted, Mischa Zverev is running to the net. It's helping him score points here, but no breaks of serve just yet...
...
Mischa Zverev holds his first service game in the second. He'll want to redeem himself now and this is a good time to do it. Federer rushes the net and Zverev can't respond fast enough. He sends it wildly into the air - but manages a service hold. 


...
19 minutes. That's what it took for Federer to polish off set 1.
...
Roger Federer has two set points. Hits an ace. Advantage Federer. Zverev thwacks that one quickly to the net - and Federer spins backwards, hits that, and it's a backwards...backhanded winner? 
...
And finally, a service hold with a lofty forehand winner from Mischa Zverev! Federer leads 5-1 and now will serve for the set.
...
We're 12 minutes into this match and Roger Federer's leading 5-0.
...
Double break! Federer runs to the net and Zverev doesn't know what's hit him. Ends it with a drop volley to take a 4-0 lead.
...
Forehand! Federer goes up 3-0 now.
...
And there's Federer with the early break of serve! He leads 2-0 but Zverev is looking for a fight back! 
...
It's nice and bright outside.. no worries about any potential rain for now! 
...
And she said yes! That's lucky ;)
...
Roger Federer is on court... but a fan has just proposed to his girlfriend in the stands! 
...
...
Stan Wawrinka to Jim Courier: "Yeah I'm glad to see you, when I see you I win a match."
...
He also is the 12th active player to chalk up 250 ATP hard-court wins.
...
Wawrinka will either play close friend Roger Federer or Germany's Mischa Zverev in the semi-finals.
...
Tsonga did much to mount a bit of a fight in the second set, but looked low on motivation today, and it appears that altercation didn't help much.
...
This is Wawrinka's third straight Grand Slam semi-final. He looked by far the more consistent player today, and did well to hold his nerve.
...
Game, set, match Stan Wawrinka, 7-6, 6-4, 6-3.
...
And it's done.
...
 Tsonga sends it long. 40-0 Stan Wawrinka.

Match point.
...
And he holds on as a challenge by Wawrinka is unfruitful. But now Wawrinka is serving for the match - and there's that temple-point!
...
A great backhand winner from Tsonga and he's still surviving here. But crucial errors are costing him here and Wawrinka's placement and that single-handed backhand are both in great form.
...
A  drop volley from Stan Wawrinka followed up with an unforced error from Tsonga - and that was the Frenchman's last attempt to stay in this match, we think. Wawrinka is now firmly in control of this.
...
Finally, Tsonga has raced to a break! He's only won one of his 5 break point chances though, while the Swiss has won all 3 of his.
...
And he's committed 35 unforced errors so far. The count is mounting here a bit..
...
Two chances, now, for Tsonga to stay in this match. 
...
This seems to be a lost cause now for Jo-Wilfried Tsonga. There's an attempt at some good volleys but they remain half-hearted, or so it seems.
