MELBOURNE, Jan. 17 (Xinhua) -- Despite winning her second round match at the Australian Open in straight sets on Thursday, China's Wang Qiang told Xinhua she still feels she can play even better.

The 27-year-old world No. 21 blasted her way past Serbia's Aleksandra Krunic 6-2, 6-3, controlling the action with a first serve win percentage of 93.

"I really just tried to bring out all my skills," Wang said. "I still don't feel I'm at my best, but I'm getting better and better."

Wang's third round tie will be against Latvia's world No. 12 Anastasija Sevastova, and the Chinese admitted that her style of play will be "hard to deal with."

"I think I still have a chance to win if I can serve like I did in the first two matches of the tournament," she said.

"But I will also need to adjust my returns and try to make her move around the court."

"The most important thing is always to adjust yourself to the best condition," Wang added.
