Simona Halep had no trouble reversing the result of her loss to Amanda Anisimova at last year’s French Open.
Halep won the rematch 6-0, 6-1 in just 54 minutes to reach the fourth round.
Anisimova made 32 unforced errors to Halep’s seven.
The top-seeded Halep extended her winning streak to a career-best 17 matches as she seeks a third Grand Slam title.
She won the trophy at Roland Garros in 2018.
Anisimova upset Halep in straight sets in the quarterfinals in Paris in 2019.
