737448331.jpgSerena Williams powered her way into the semi-final of the Sony Ericsson Open after a comfortable victory over Nicole Vaidisova.

The Australian Open champion made light work of reaching the last four, with a 6-1 6-4 win over her opponent from the Czech Republic.

Following her crushing victory over world number two Maria Sharapova in the previous round, Williams is obviously full of confidence.

The American will now play Israel's Shahar Peer for a place in the final, after Peer's 6-0 6-3 win over Italy's Tathiana Garbin.
The other semi-final sees world number one Justine Henin face Russia's Anna Chakvetadze.

Williams is now the 1.8 favourite to take the title in Miami, with Henin currently trading at 3.
Chakvetadze can be backed at 14.5, while Peer is the outsider of the four at 15.
