The United States was tested for the first time at the Women's Basketball World Cup, before grinding out an 88-55 quarterfinal win over Serbia in Sydney.

After a slow start, the US used a dominant run spanning the half to take control of the game and reach the semifinals.

Alyssa Thomas played a key role in the win with 13 points, 14 rebounds and seven assists.

"I think you expect every team's best punch in the first quarter," Thomas said.

"We just had to settle into the game and once we settled in, then we were really able to break away."

Kelsey Plum scored 17 points and A'ja Wilson added 15 to lead the US (6-0), who will face Canada in the semifinals on Friday.

Canada defeated Puerto Rico 79-60 in their quarterfinal.
