Serena Williams has said that it would be "beyond amazing" to win her 19th Grand Slam title at this year's Australian Open.
The world number one, who is a five-time champion in Melbourne, booked her place in the second round with a 6-0 6-4 win over Belgium's Alison Van Uytvanck earlier.
Speaking after the match, the American said: "If I could get to 19 Slams in Australia, that would be beyond amazing. But I'm just going to enjoy myself."
Williams will face Russia's Vera Zvonareva, whom she beat in the 2010 Wimbledon final, in the second round.
