Defending champion, Serena Williams did not need to work too hard to earn her 300th career Grand Slam match win and move into the fourth round at Wimbledon, overwhelming 43rd-ranked Annika Beck of Germany 6-3, 6-0 on Sunday.

The victory pushed Williams past Chrissie Evert into second for career Grand Slam victories in the Open era. Williams trails only Martina Navratilova, who went 306-49 in her career.

It took all of 51 minutes at Centre Court for Williams to advance. Williams, who has won six of her 21 Grand Slam titles at the All England Club, compiled a 25-2 edge in winners.
