It’s gotta be Naomi in straights, right?

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Jen and Naomi did meet in a s/final at USO 2020 which went 3 sets.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Naomi Osaka has a 20 match winning streak and is looking to make that 21 when she faces Jen Brady in the final
Osaka leads their H2H 2-1
Their best match was at last year's USO s/final which went to 3 sets.

Good luck to both ladies.I hope it is a competitive match.

 

[Vince Evert]

I reckon Naomi wins in two sets. One of the sets will be competitive one.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Alison Hughes will be the chair umpire for this match.Alison has officiated in 20 Grand Slam Singles finals.

Osaka will rise to No 2 if she wins the title tonight
Brady will rise to No 12 if she wins the title tonight
