BEIJING (AP) \u2014 Wimbledon<\/a> champion Iga Swiatek defeated Yuan Yue 6-0, 6-3 on Saturday to advance to the third round at the China Open and create some WTA Tour history.<\/p>\n

The WTA said Swiatek, with Saturday\u2019s win, became the first player<\/a> to register 25 or more wins at WTA-1000 events for three consecutive seasons.<\/p>\n

Top-seeded Swiatek, who won last week\u2019s Korea Open in Seoul, has also won the French Open four times and the U.S. Open once among her six Grand Slam singles titles.<\/p>\n

In earlier matches Saturday in Beijing, fourth-seeded Mirra Andreeva beat Zhu Lin 6-2, 6-2 and American Emma Navarro defeated Elena-Gabriela Ruse 6-3, 7-6 (0).<\/p>\n

Naomi Osaka won the opening set of her second-round match before Aliaksandra Sasnovich rallied to win 1-6, 6-4, 6-2, and Emma Raducanu beat Cristina Bucsa 6-3, 6-3.<\/p>\n

The tournament is being held concurrently with an ATP 500 men\u2019s tournament.<\/p>\n

Jannik Sinner beat Frenchman Terence Atmane 6-4, 5-7, 6-0 to advance to the quarterfinals.<\/p>\n

Sinner, who lost the U.S. Open<\/a> final to Carlos Alcaraz three weeks ago, dropped only four games in his first-round match against Croatian veteran Marin Cilic. <\/p>\n
