The top names in tennis were in action on Friday, as the quarterfinals got underway at the Western and Southern Open.

Below, we'll break down the day's results and recap the action. ProTennisLive.com also has an updated schedule for Saturday's semifinal action.

 

Men's Results



The Western and Southern Open semifinals will feature three familiar faces. Alexandr Dolgopolov decided to crash the party, too. 

He'll be joining No. 1 Novak Djokovic, No. 2 Roger Federer and No. 3 Andy Murray after knocking off No. 6 Tomas Berdych on Friday. His reward for reaching the semifinals is a matchup against Djokovic, however. 

Dolgopolov spoke about his victory over Berdych and his upcoming contest against Djokovic on Friday evening.



Beating Djokovic, the top player in the world at the moment, is a long shot at best. The Djoker wasn't terribly bothered by Stan Wawrinka, knocking him out in straight sets and looking incredibly convincing in the process. 

It's hard to imagine he won't be in the final. 

Who he faces is another story entirely, however, as Federer and Murray will clash in Saturday's premier matchup. Federer was able to get past Feliciano Lopez in straight sets, though No. 12 Richard Gasquet gave Murray some problems, winning the first set before Murray won the next two. 

Murray vs. Federer should be fun. Federer leads the all-time series, 13-11, and has beaten Murray in four straight matches, including this year's Wimbledon semifinals. Murray, on the other hand, is coming off capturing a Rogers Cup title after beating Djokovic in an epic final. 

 

Women's Results



No. 1 Serena Williams was given a scare on Friday. She recovered, as she always seems to do, knocking off No. 6 Ana Ivanovic after dropping the first set.
