Rain reschedules US Open final for Monday

There will be a delayed final at the US Open after heavy rain washed out Friday's action.

The downpour put off the women's semi-finals, in which Caroline Wozniacki faces Yanina Wickmayer, and home favorite Serena Williams takes on Kim Clijsters. These matches are now due to be played on Saturday.

Also to be completed is the men's quarter-final between Rafael Nadal and Fernando Gonzalez.

The pair took to the court on Thursday night, but had to halt their match, with Nadal a set up and midway through a tie-break for the second.

The delay means the men's final won't take place before Monday.
