Sixth seed Williams, winner here in 2002 and 2003, came through an intense opening set full of high quality tennis before running away with the match.
Williams surged into a 5-0 lead in the second set and although Mauresmo recovered one break of serve there was no way back.
"It was so windy out there I couldn't make my shots," said Williams after taking her career record against Mauresmo to 10-2.
