During Round 3's action at Roland Garros, Serena Williams moved past Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova, 6-1 1-6 6-2. There was brief cause for concern during the second set:
Ooh, Serena's having treatment. The doctor's out. She's having her temperature taken! This is no mere sprain or ache...
In the third set, though, Williams suddenly looked like her normal self, putting away Pavlyuchenkova to advance to the fourth round. She'll face Shahar Peer, who defeated Marion Bartoli on Day 7 to advance.
