NEW YORK (Reuters) - Serena Williams and Victoria Azarenka are one step away from booking a tantalising championship rematch at the U.S. Open heading into an intriguing set of women's semi-finals on Friday.

Williams, the top-seeded defending champion, will look to extend a dominant run through the women's draw against fifth-seeded Li Na of China, who became the first Chinese to reach the last four at the U.S. Open.
