The world number one broke her opponent's serve three times in the first set to record a score of 6-2 in 33 minutes.

Pereira then took a 30-0 lead in the first game of the second set but let it slip against the 34-year-old American, who never looked back thereafter to record a score of 6-1 and an easy match win.

Williams will take either on Timea Babos or Kristina Mladenovic in the third round.
