On Saturday at the Ritz-Carlton Golf Club, Luke Donald has advanced to the final of the Accenture Match Play Championship, and will face either Bubba Watson or Martin Kaymer in the final. The schedule of the tournament, which follows a bracket rather than a conventional leaderboard, has been accelerated due to the threat of snow, so two rounds -- the quarterfinals and semifinals -- are being decided on Saturday.
