The 20-year-old had earned a fine win over Iveta Bensova in round one and backed that up with another good display against American Jamie Hampton on Wednesday, winning 6-1 6-4.

A delighted Watson said after her latest success: “People might say on paper it was a good draw, but she made it hard for me and wasn't giving me anything.

“I don't think Jamie was at her best at the beginning and I tried to take advantage of that.”

Two more British women have the chance to make the third round on Thursday; Elena Baltacha and Anne Keothavong.

Baltacha, who was the last lady before Watson to reach the last 32 back in 2002, faces a massive task if she is to reach round three as she next takes on defending champion Petra Kvitova and she is 7/1 to spring a massive shock.

Kvitova is 1/12 to end Baltacha's hopes and 3/10 to win in straight sets.

Life is little easier for Keothavong, who next faces beaten French Open finalist Sara Errani of Italy.
