Phil Dalhausser gets set for the finals -- along with teammate Todd Rogers, he'll be hanging out with Misty May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh in Beijing next month.

Kerri Walsh and Misty May-Treanor got past Tyra Turner and Rachel Wacholder in the semifinals.

Kerri Walsh had her head in the game, but told The Canadian Press that "the Olympics are only 20 days away. I feel it every second of the day."

The dynamic duo hasn't lost in 96 consecutive matches.
