Naomi Osaka's bid for Tokyo Olympic gold is growing stronger by the day as she cruised into the third round after defeating Viktorija Golubic.
Her Swiss opponent could do little to nullify the incoming serve and Osaka, who is bidding to become the first Japanese player ever to win Olympic gold, was ruthless in her execution.
The 23-year-old raced into a 6-3 lead in the first set and never looked like being troubled inside a vacant Centre Court, taking the second and decisive set 6-2.
