Iga Swiatek rushed through her first set in 26 minutes and completed her 6-0, 6-2 second-round win over Rebecca Sramkova in an hour at the Australian Open.
The five-time Grand Slam champion makes a habit of advancing quickly through the early rounds of tournaments, and this match was no exception.
Swiatek dominated from the start, breaking Sramkova's serve in the first game and never looking back.
She won 12 of the first 13 points and didn't drop a game in the first set, which lasted just 26 minutes.
Sramkova put up a bit more of a fight in the second set, but Swiatek was still in control, breaking serve twice to take the set 6-2.
The win sets up a highly anticipated third-round match against Emma Raducanu, who also won her second-round match in straight sets.
Swiatek and Raducanu have never met before, but both players are known for their aggressive playing styles, which should make for an exciting matchup.
Swiatek is the favorite to win the tournament, but Raducanu has shown she can compete with the best players in the world.
The match is scheduled to take place on Friday, and fans are eagerly awaiting what promises to be one of the most exciting matches of the tournament so far.
