New York, Sept 1: Serena Williams stormed into the second round of the US Open tennis championships on Tuesday with a 6-1, 6-1 rout of Serbian teenager Bojana Jovanovski.
Williams, a 13-time Grand Slam champion who is seeded a lowly 28th after a near year-long injury absence, needed just 56 minutes to overwhelm the 54th-ranked Jovanovski.
She faces a second-round clash with Dutch qualifier Michaela Krajicek - a 3-6, 7-6 (7/4), 6-1 winner over Greece's Eleni Daniilidou. AFP
