MELBOURNE, Australia – Two-time Australian Open champion Victoria Azarenka continued her incredible start to her 2016 title campaign, notching a swift win over Montenegrin player Danka Kovinic to advance to the third round.

Azarenka needed barely an hour to cruise past Kovinic 6-1, 6-2. The Belorussian has yet to lose a set in 2016 – in fact, she has only dropped 20 games all year, and only three so far in the tournament.

“I really don’t count the games,” Azarenka said after the match. “What really works for me is to stay in the moment. I enjoy my time on the court and play every point like it’s my last.

“I just want to enjoy the journey. Right now I just can’t wait to be out here again.”

Her new outlook is paying dividends: the No.14 seed hit only nine unforced errors to Kovinic’s 22, and blasted 19 winners, including a huge around-the-post forehand winner.

“I played really well, especially in the beginning,” Azarenka said. “I just tried to just create opportunities and not let her dictate the points.”

Up next, Azarenka is set to face the unseeded Japanese 18-year old Naomi Osaka, who won 6-4, 6-4 in an upset over No.18-seeded Elina Svitolina.

“I never feel pressure from playing someone that’s supposed to be like better than me, sort of,” Osaka told the press of playing No.14 seed Azarenka. “I’m just going to go in there happy and hopefully try to pull off an upset.”

Osaka is into the third round of a Grand Slam for the first time in her career, previously never having advanced past qualifying. Last season at the WTA Finals in Singapore, Osaka announced herself as a young talent to watch by taking home the title at the WTA Rising Stars Invitational.
