Jelena Jankovic eases past Johanna Larsson into US Open fourth round

Jelena Jankovic eases her way into the fourth round of the US Open with a straight-sets win over Johanna Larsson at Flushing Meadows.

Jelena Jankovic has booked her place in the fourth round of the US Open with a comfortable 6-1 6-0 victory over Johanna Larsson.

The 29-year-old had a strong start at Flushing Meadows by earning a break point at the first time of asking.

The Serbian continued her dominance with another break of serve, which allowed her to push on and see out the set, while Larsson struggled to match her opponent.

The 26-year-old had a battle on her hands to keep her serve in the first game of the second set, and despite saving three break points initially, Larsson was forced to relinquish her opening game.

From that point on, Jankovic went from strength to strength to grab two more breaks and then easily serve out for the match.
