Russia will win two of the three medals in Women's Singles at the Beijing Olympics.Russian Dinara Safina beat World #1 Jelena Jankovic 6-2 5-7 6-3 and will need to defeat Li Na for a chance to win the Gold Medal. In the other semi-final, Vera Zvonareva will face Elena Dementieva, insuring there will be at least one Russian (and most likely two) in the Gold Medal match.
