Sam Stosur has forged into career-best territory at Wimbledon, gorging on Olga Puchkova's feeble serving to reach the third round.
World No 14 Stosur advanced to the round of 32 at the All England Club for only the second time with a 6-2 6-2 throttling of outclassed Puchkova.
Ranked 85th in the world, Puchkova practically donated the match to Stosur, winning a meagre 11 points from seven service games.

The Russian won two of 18 service points in the first set, winning her only two games with service breaks against the 2011 US Open champion.
She was marginally better in the second set, actually holding serve twice.
But she was virtually an invisble obstacle against Stosur, whose only other appearance in the third round here came in 2009.
Delighted after the 52-minute rout, Stosur will next face 23rd seed Sabine Lisicki.
The German overwhelmed Russian Elena Vesnina 6-3 6-1.
A semi-finalist here two years ago, Lisicki is armed by a wicked serve and, up until the start of this tournament, had served more aces this season apart from Serena Williams.
Slovakian Dominika Cibulkova powered into the third round with a 6-0 6-1 whipping of Spain's Maria-Theresa Torro-Flor.
Impressive young American Madison Keys upset German 30th seed Mona Barthel 6-4 6-2.
