Clijsters canters through

Kim Clijsters, who set off at a gallop in the first round, showed little sign of a let-up as she cantered through to the last 16 with a straight sets win over Samantha Reeves.

The world number two and second seed took just 50 minutes to secure a 6-1 6-2 victory over the 24-year-old American and, after dropping just seven games in three rounds, looks to be on course for a third successive Grand Slam final.
