In the second round, she will take on Ukraine's Elina Svitolina, as the third seed rallied past Anastasija Sevastova of Latvia 6-7 (4), 6-1, 6-2.
Despite featuring no seeded player, the encounter between American great Venus Williams and Wimbledon semifinalist Barbora Strycova caught huge attention.
Seven-time Grand Slam winner Williams triumphed 6-3, 4-6, 7-5 after more than two and a half hours.
"She's a great competitor. I was just super happy to win that at the end and stay in the tournament," Williams noted.
