Serena Williams sweeps aside Zarina Diyas

By , Reporter
Serena Williams breezes past Zarina Diyas into round four of the BNP Paribas Open at Indian Wells.

Serena Williams has cruised through to the fourth round of the BNP Paribas Open at Indian Wells following a straight-sets victory over Zarina Diyas.

The world number one could only get 50% of first serves in during the opening set, but the Australian Open champion didn't let that hinder her game as she took control of proceedings.

Diyas was unable to make inroads against the Williams serve as the American took the opener 6-2 before breezing to victory in the second set.

Williams raced through, winning the second 6-0 and securing progression to round four in under an hour.

She will now meet the winner of the third-round match between 22nd-seed Svetlana Kuznetsova and Sloane Stephens.
