Serena to play teenager Bellis

Serena Williams will play 15-year-old CiCi Bellis at the Miami Open after easing through her rain-delayed second round match on Saturday.

It was a comfortable session for the world No. 1 who launched her bid for an eighth title at the Miami WTA with a 6-3 6-1 victory over Monica Niculescu.

The 33-year-old American defeated the cagey Romanian for the second tournament in succession, showing no sign of the knee injury that forced her to forfeit her Indian Wells quarter-final.

"It was a little sore in practice, but it was OK," Williams said of her knee. "I really didn't feel it, to be honest." 

"Once you step out on the court you have so much adrenaline going. The adrenaline kind of kills it. So I was surprised. I felt pretty good."
