Venus Williams kept favorites on the fast track at the U.S. Open, overwhelming Rossana de Los Rios in less than an hour Thursday to reach the third round.

The seventh-seeded Williams won on her fifth match point, needing only 59 minutes to advance. That's mostly been the pattern so far at Flushing Meadows, with the big names facing little trouble.

Through the early action on Day 4, only two top players had been upset in the tournament - No. 8 Vera Zvonareva and No. 10 Anna Chakvetadze.

No.
