Two-time Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitova blazed her way into the Australian Open quarter-finals Sunday with an emphatic straight sets win over American teenager Amanda Anisimova. But the 28-year-old said she was wary of Anisimova, who defeated her last year in Indian Wells. The teenager, the youngest player to reach the fourth round at Melbourne Park since 2006, regathered as the Czech went hunting for another break. Kvitova was relentless though, picking off the youngster’s second serve to snatch a second break then claiming the first set after 32 minutes. She never looked back, racing home in the second after claiming six straight games.
