Raonic and Brown met for the first time in the first round of last year’s U.S. Open, where Raonic won in straight sets.
On Tuesday, Raonic defeated Brown 6-3, 6-4, 6-2.
Last year as the 13th-seeded player, Raonic had his best performance at Melbourne Park, advancing to the semifinals before losing to Andy Murray.
The 26-year-old Raonic is playing in his seventh Australian Open and in his 24th major. His best result so far has been a run to the Wimbledon final last year.
