Samantha Stosur: 'I couldn't have played better in US Open second round'

Samantha Stosur has claimed that she could not have played "much better" in her second-round match against Evgeniya Rodina at the US Open.

The Australian, who won the title at Flushing Meadows in 2011, blistered through a 6-1 6-1 victory today in New York.

"I was very pleased with the way I played today," Stosur told the tournament's official website. "It couldn't have been much better. It was a great start to the day."

Stosur will face Sara Errani in the next round.
