Top seed, Aryna Sabalenka, remains on course to win a third straight Australian Open title after wrapping up a win over Mirra Andreeva in just 62 minutes on Rod Laver Arena on Sunday.

The 6-1 6-2 victory over her 17-year-old Russian opponent is the two-time champion’s 18th win in a row at Melbourne Park, and sets up a quarter-final against another Russian, Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova.

“I’m super happy to get this win. Mirra is so young, so mature, such a great player. She can play really great tennis,” Sabalenka stated after the match. “I’m super happy with my level today and I hope the conditions stay the same for the rest of the tournament.”

Meanwhile, Pavlyuchenkova came through her fourth round clash against Croatia’s Donna Vekic with a 7-6 6-0 win in earlier on Sunday.
