BEIJING (AP) Americans Todd Rogers and Phil Dalhausser will play for the gold medal in beach Volleyball.

The reigning world champions beat Georgia 21-11, 21-13 in the semifinal Wednesday in one of the quickest matches of the Olympics.

The U.S. pair will play on Friday against the winner of the other final-four game, an all-Brazil matchup.

Renato Gomes and Jorge Terceiro are native Brazilians who obtained Georgian passports to avoid a quota that limits each country to two entries in the 24-team field.

Americans Kerri Walsh and Misty May-Treanor will play in the women's final Thursday against China.
