in a walk
Winning by miles
Easily, without difficulty or serious competition.
A team that wins in a walk dominates so thoroughly that the outcome was never in doubt: They took the championship in a walk.
The phrase evokes a leisurely pace rather than a sprint—victory achieved while barely exerting oneself.
