World number one Novak Djokovic has talked up his chances of claiming the US Open after racing into the second round of the tournament.
The Serbian needed just 71 minutes to record a 6-1 6-1 6-1 straight-sets victory over Brazilian Joao Souza at Flushing Meadows in New York.
"I'm just hoping I can continue playing this way and if I do so I think I have a very good chance against anybody," said Djokovic after his win, according to BBC Sport.
Djokovic last won the US Open in 2011.
