One to go to have the most grand slams wins in the Open era - female and male
Serena Williams cruises into U.S. Open fourth round1:10
Another win, another milestone for Serena Williams who rolled into the U.S. Open last 16 on Saturday by crushing Sweden's Johanna Larsson 6-2, 6-1 to collect Grand Slam victory number 307 - the most by a woman in the Open era.
As in the majority of her victories at the majors, Williams operated with ruthless efficiency but displayed little fire as she coolly dispatched the 47th-ranked Swede in exactly one hour.
The win moved the 34-year-old American past Martina Navratilova and level with Roger Federer for most Grand Slam victories by a man or woman.

But Venus is my favorite.
Gosh I remember the beads in their hair. They rocked the tennis world. I thought they were so fantastic. I remember Chris Evert being dismissive of them.
I lost so much respect for Chrissie then.
