The daughter of the owners of Buffalo Bills is again making headway down under and is channeling the rapid fan base of the team in her quest for a Grand Slam title.

Jessica Pegula, the daughter of Terry and Kim Pegula, is on to the fourth round at the Australian Open for the second straight year after dispatching Nuria Parrizas Diaz of Spain, 7-6 (3), 6-2 on Thursday.

Following the win, Pegula wrote on the on-court camera: "Bills you're next."

Buffalo will take on the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday in the AFC Divisional Round in a rematch of last year's AFC Championship Game.

The 27-year old Pegula, who is 21st in the latest WTA rankings, will take on Maria Sakkari, a 6-4, 6-1 winner over Veronika Kudermetova, in the next round.
