Fourth seed Svetlana Kuznetsova strolled into the third round of Wimbledon on Wednesday, defeating Ukrainian Kateryna Bondarenko 6-2, 6-3.
The 22-year-old Russian, who came from a set behind to sneak past French qualifier Mathilde Johansson in round one, enjoyed an easier afternoon spending just over an hour on Centre Court.
Bondarenko, the world number 47 and a junior winner here four years ago, rallied briefly in the second set but was unable to recover from falling two breaks behind in each set.
Former US Open champion Kuznetsova could face Bondarenko's older sister Alona in the next round.
