Tennis: Sharapova powers into Wimbledon last 16
Sharapova will play German ninth seed Angelique Kerber or Belgium's Kirsten Flipkens.
LONDON (AFP) - Maria Sharapova remains on course for a rare French Open and Wimbledon double after moving into the fourth round at the All England Club with a 6-3, 6-0 victory over American Alison Riske on Saturday.
Sharapova is bidding to become the first woman since Serena Williams in 2002 to follow victory at Roland Garros with Wimbledon glory just weeks later.
The 27-year-old was pushed harder than the scoreline suggested, but the 2004 Wimbledon winner eventually took charge to over-power world number 44 Riske in 69 minutes under the roof on Centre Court.
Sharapova, the world number five, is yet to drop a set in this year's tournament and will play German ninth seed Angelique Kerber or Belgium's Kirsten Flipkens, a 2013 semi-finalist, for a place in the quarter-finals.
