GAME-BY-GAME UPDATES
Third set:
Mauresmo 6-1 3-6 6-3 Myskina
Mauresmo double-faults but recomposes herself to earn herself two more match points. Myskina nets the return on the first and Mauresmo is in the semi-finals for the third year in a row.
Mauresmo 6-1 3-6 5-3 Myskina
Mauresmo sets up match point with a lovely pass but then nets lamely with the court seemingly at her mercy. A 29-stroke rally follows - Myskina wins it and goes on to hold.
Mauresmo 6-1 3-6 5-2 Myskina
Mauresmo looks pretty calm as she holds to 15. It's probably of little consolation to Myskina that the point she does win is the best of the match so far, the ball ping-ponging back and forth before the Russian smashes it away.
Mauresmo 6-1 3-6 4-2 Myskina
Two poor shots and a double fault from Myskina see her go 0-40 down. She hits a forehand long and suddenly Mauresmo has the break and is in the driving seat - but will she put her foot on the accelerator or pull out the choke?
Mauresmo 6-1 3-6 3-2 Myskina
The serving dominance continues as Mauresmo storms to 40-0 up. She then double-faults twice before delivering an ace to secure the game.
Mauresmo 6-1 3-6 2-2 Myskina
Myskina holds and there has still not been a point against serve in this final serve.
Mauresmo 6-1 3-6 2-1 Myskina
Another game dominated by the server as Mauresmo holds without dropping a point.
Mauresmo 6-1 3-6 1-1 Myskina
It's like we went through a wardrobe at the end of the second set and we are now in another land as Myskina wins her own serve in emphatic fashion.
Mauresmo 6-1 3-6 1-0 Myskina
The third set begins - this is new territory for both these players in these championships. Confidence and Mauresmo are not words that go together but the French woman looks pretty determined as she cruises through the first game, throwing in an ace for good measure.
Second set:
Mauresmo 6-1 3-6 Myskina
Talking of OAPs, Sir Cliff Richard is in the crowd - not sure why he would give up his Centre Court seat to watch this but the match is at least beginning to warm up. Myskina enjoys a comfortable service game - that has been a rarity for her today - to level at one-set all.
Mauresmo 6-1 3-5 Myskina
Despite the hot conditions, at the changeovers, Mauresmo sits with a towel draped rug-like over her legs as if she was an OAP on the seafront at Eastbourne. Her game has been a bit creaky in the second set, too, but she holds serve to force Myskina to serve for the set.
Mauresmo 6-1 2-5 Myskina
For the second time in the match, a Mauresmo mishit ends up in the Court One crowd. But it's a good game with serveral decent rallies Myskina saves two break points before holding to move to within one game of the set.
Mauresmo 6-1 2-4 Myskina
Quality-wise, this is not a good advert for a Top 10 clash. More mishits from the Myskina racquet leave her muttering darkly to herself.
Mauresmo 6-1 1-4 Myskina
Mauresmo is reputed to be one of the nicest players on the women's tour and she's certainly showing great consideration at the moment. She's allowing Myskina to get back into the match and thus extending the entertainment for the paying public. Myskina could probably serve quicker if she tried doing it underarm.
Mauresmo 6-1 1-3 Myskina
Mauresmo ends Myskina's run of games with a comfortable hold of serve.
"I'm having great difficulty fathoming out what's happening in this match."
BBC summariser Virginia Wade
Mauresmo 6-1 0-3 Myskina
Some of Myskina's serves are less speeding bullets, more firmly blown feathers. But Mauresmo cannot take advantage and the Russian ninth seed is halfway towards levelling the match.
Mauresmo 6-1 0-2 Myskina
As if on cue, Mauresmo goes on a mental walkabout - several errors later, Myskina has the break.
Mauresmo 6-1 0-1 Myskina
Myskina holds - not very convincingly but let's not quibble. And there's always hope for Mauresmo opponents - the French woman nearly always has a wobble of some sort when it gets to the business end of a Grand Slam.
First set:
"Too easy for Mauresmo, too awful for Myskina."
BBC commentator Barry Davies
Mauresmo 6-1 Myskina
Mauresmo races to 40-0 up. Myskina claws back a couple of points - one with a delightful lob - but it's too little, too late and Mauresmo has the first set in the bag after just 20 minutes.
Mauresmo 5-1 Myskina
Some more poor play from Myskina who is broken again. Her service games are disappearing faster than it takes to type a paragraph.
Mauresmo 4-1 Myskina
A neat and tidy service game for Mauresmo. At the moment she just needs to get the ball in, Myskina is doing the rest for her.
Mauresmo 3-1 Myskina
Myskina has a better service game but is serving too many dolly-drops and gives Mauresmo the break when she nets a half-volley.
Mauresmo 2-1 Myskina
Right, after that false start the match proper can begin... Mauresmo holds serve to 30, jogging to her chair after wrapping up the game with an ace.
"I think there are going to be a lot of service breaks in this match."
BBC Sport summariser Virginia Wade
Mauresmo 1-1 Myskina
If Mauresmo was cold, Myskina is positively frozen. She begins with a double fault and does not get a point in an error-strewn game.
Mauresmo 1-0 Myskina
It's hot and sticky out there but Mauresmo has come out cold - a double fault puts her break point down and then she hits about a yard long to concede her opening service game.
Top seed Amelie Mauresmo squares up to ninth seed Anastasia Myskina in a repeat of last year's quarter-final.
Australian Open champion Mauresmo won that encounter but her Russian opponent has been in good form recently and like Mauresmo, has not dropped a set at this year's Wimbledon.
