The big matches had to wait one more day, but a women's singles champion should be crowned in the 2012 U.S. Open on Sunday, with No. 1 Victoria Azarenka facing No. 4 Serena Williams after their match was postponed on Saturday.
Williams has been perhaps the strongest competitor in the tournament so far, having yet to lose a set in any of her six singles matches. She's looking for her third U.S. Open Singles title, having won in 1999, 2002 and 2008. Azarenka will be playing for her first U.S. Open title, having defeated No. 3 Maria Sharapova 3-6, 6-2, 6-4 in the semifinals.
On the men's side, No. 4 David Ferrer will finish his men's semifinals match against No. 2 Novak Djokovic after their match was postponed with Ferrer on top in the first set, 5-2. The winner of the match will go on to face No. 3 Andy Murray, who defeated No. 6 Tomas Berdych earlier Saturday.
ESPN2 will have coverage of the men's semifinal beginning at 11 a.m. ET, with CBS covering the women's final at 4:30 p.m. ET.

11 a.m. ET
No. 4 David Ferrer vs. No. 2 Novak Djokovic
Not before 4: 30 p.m. ET
