The 2013 Australian Open continues as Andy Murray faces Jeremy Chardy in the semifinals of the Men's Singles tournament. If you can't watch the game or simply don't want to watch the game on your television, join us for the live blog with play-by-play and up to the minute scoring updates. 

Murray is trying to pick up where he left off in 2012, as a champion. He captured his first grand slam title after beating Novak Djokovic in Queens, N.Y. at the U.S. Open. 

Murray, who has been usually characterized as a slow starter, is red hot and on a Roger Federer-like streak. Murray has yet to lose a set at the Australian Open. He has won all 12 sets and swept all his matches.

Murray comes into this Men's Sinlges tournament ranked third. He has taken down Gilles Simon (14), Ricardas Berankis, Jao Sousa and Robin Haase in the first four rounds. 

His opponent, Chardy, hails from France and has been on an incredible run as the only remaining player to go into the Australian Open unranked. Chardy is No. 36 in Men's Singles. He took out Andreas Seppi (21) in four sets, sweeping the last three without a problem. 

The Frenchmen's other victims include No. 6 Juan Martin del Potro, whom Chardy retired in after five well played sets. Before this match, he defeated Marcel Granollers (30) and got the tournament started with a victory over Adrian Menendez-Maceiras.
