Unseeded at the tournament, former No. 1 Williams fended off a thrilling challenge from the on-fire Konta, sealing a last four place with a 6-4, 3-6 Curtis Samuel Womens Jersey , 7-5 win.


Konta was no ordinary qualifier. Since Wimbledon, the Brit had won 21 of her last 22 matches coming into Thursday's quarterfinal, having just recovered from 1-5 in the final set to upset top seed Simona Halep 24 hours earlier.


Williams has had a stellar week of her own in Wuhan, winning her 700th career match to reach her sixth quarterfinal of 2015, and looked the fresher of the two in taking the opening set.


Konta, however Christian McCaffrey Womens Jersey , would not go down without a fight, and showed what has become her signature grit to force the match into a decider and twice lead by a break in the final set.

"I can't believe I'm standing here as the winner," Williams confessed during her on-court interview. "Johanna played so well; she's had a wonderful summer and beat so many players this tournament. It seemed like I was finished but I felt the energy of the crowd behind me. I felt so good!"


Each player broke serve six times, and played some of their best points at net - Konta winning 14 of 16 while Williams won 16 of 22. Though Konta finished the match with more winners Donte Jackson Womens Jersey , it was the five-time Wimbledon champion who managed to play cleaner tennis when it counted, hitting seven fewer errors to put herself just two matches from a 47th career WTA title.


"This is where I want to be: at the end of the tournament and playing a match for the finals," said Williams.


Up next for the American is US Open finalist and No. 15 seed Roberta Vinci; the former doubles No. 1 edged past WTA rising star and No. 8 seed Karolina Pliskova in two tight sets 7-6 (2), 6-3.


Williams has never dropped a set to the Italian veteran in three matches, but the two haven't played since 2012, and Vinci is arguably playing the best tennis of her career as she gets closer to her career-high singles ranking of No. 11.

Even though the NFL has national coverage and is viewed by millions of people Shaq Thompson Jersey ,

college football is just as, or even more widespread than the NFL. However, the

rules and regulations that come with college football are completely different than

those that the NFL has. For this reason it is important for sports bettors to

understand the rules that come with betting on college football. There are also

several basic aspects of college football betting that everyone should know about,

such as knowing the game, as well as maintaining a good bankroll.

College Football Differences

There are many differences that make college football a different game altogether,

but still making it as James Bradberry Jersey , or even more, competitive than the NFL. There are four main

differences, along with other differences that are not as noticeable; clock

management, pass reception, knee-downs, and tie-breakers.

Clock Management

In college football Daeshon Hall Jersey , the clock is managed completely different than it is in pro-

football. Every time one team or the other gets a first down, the clock is stopped.

chains. In pro-football, however, the clock is not stopped for a first down; there

may be other factors that may make the clock stop but it is not due to a first

down.

Pass Reception

In college football, in order for a receiver to have a complete reception of a

pass, they have to have control of the ball Taylor Moton Jersey , and have at least one foot on the

ground; this rule applies when the receiver is catching the ball and he may go out

of bounds. In pro-football, the player has to have both feet on the ground in order

for it to be a catch. As a result, this allows for longer and wider passes in

college football.
