Johanna Konta played down comparisons of her run to the Wimbledon semi-finals two years ago despite another impressive display taking her smoothly into the third round.
The British number one has yet to drop a set at this year's tournament after a commanding 6-3 6-4 victory against Katerina Siniakova.
Konta reached the last four in 2017, and rose to number four in the world, but her form dipped last year.
The 28-year-old, a semi-finalist at the French Open in May, said: "I don't really compare myself to myself. I think I'm in a good place right now. I think I'm playing good tennis.
"I'm definitely enjoying the tennis I'm playing. I feel like I'm asking my opponents a lot of questions.
"I feel like I'm answering quite a few, as well, when they ask me questions out on court.
"I think I've been kind of building on my level each tournament, each match I've been playing as the season has been going. I'm pleased with that.
"We know it's never just an upward trajectory. Overall I'm just really glad that I came through a tough match today, and just looking forward to being in the third round."
Czech player Siniakova, ranked 38 in the world, beat Konta in their only previous meeting in 2017, but she was hardly given a sniff of a repeat on Centre Court.
It was a ruthless performance, particularly on serve, from Konta who looks to be building on the form she showed at Roland Garros.
She will now face American Sloane Stephens, who she swept aside 6-4 6-1 in Paris, on Saturday.
Stephens said: "It's been a rough year with Jo Konta! Like I said, I've got to get her this time if I play her, obviously.
"But she's a great player, so I'm just going to have to go out and try a new game plan, new style, try some different stuff and just compete."
