It was business as usual for Paula Badosa on Wednesday at the Australian Open, as the Spaniard put on a splendid performance to book her spot in the third round.

Badosa breezed past Italian qualifier Martina Trevisan 6-0 6-3 in her second round match, delighting fans with her superb play on Rod Laver Arena. The eighth seed was impressive on serve, winning 16 of 20 points behind her first serve. Furthermore, Badosa never faced a break point, while converting five of her 13 break point opportunities.
