6-0 6-0 in 52 minutes: defending champion Aryna Sabalenka (WTA 2) left the Ukrainian Lesia Tsurenko (33) no chance in the third round of the Australian Open.
The Belarusian has been amazing so far in Melbourne: in three matches, she has only let six games slip away and, in total, has spent less than three hours on the court. In the 1st round, 6-0 6-1 (against Ella Seidel) in 53′, in the 2nd 6-3 6-2 (against Brenda Fruhvirtova) in 67′, and even less in the 3rd.
“I’m super happy with the level I’m playing at so far, I hope to continue like this, or even better“, ambitions Sabalenka, who will face in the round of 16 the American Amanda Anisimova, former world 21st who has fallen beyond 400th place after having experienced a difficult period.

Gauff also expeditious
The 2023 US Open champion Coco Gauff (4) did barely worse. The American, titled in Auckland in preparation for the first Major of the season, crushed her compatriot Alycia Parks (82) 6-0 6-2 in 63 minutes. She hasn’t dropped a single set so far either.
