The final is set. Major final debutante Jennifer Brady meets 3 time major champion Naomi Osaka, a rematch of last year's US Open semifinal, in this year's final. Who do you think takes the title this year?

On paper Osaka should just crush her. I am hoping this not something like Graff vs Zvereva FO final. Brady got game but can
she hold it together mentally. Have to say that the last game in the SF match between M and B was better then the entire match
between S and O.

LOL,,, Kamal Murray ,, coach of sloan stevens just picked Jenn Brady to win the australian open................... Dude,,,,come back to reality and then maybe you will do a better job of coaching Sloan
 
Osaka for the win. I voted for three sets bc Brady has played her tough and I'm hoping for a good match, but I wouldn't be surprised by straight sets win for Osaka.

Making a push so this thread isn't forgotten and is readily able for people to comment on tomorrow.

Haven't really seen Brady play in this AO, only some of Osaka's matches. For those who have seen both, how do you think things will pan out tomorrow? A straight affair or a drawn out one?

I predict Osaka in 2,although I would be happy for Brady if she wins.

Brady's draw has been extremely favorable, almost Nadalesque.

Hard to imagine that Brady will have the confidence to beat Osaka in a major final. I would think that Osaka can win in straight sets especially after beating Muguruza and Williams.

Brady can't afford to endanger fans and chair umpires with her errant shots like she did in the SF in the 2nd set (and occasionally in the 3rd set). It was interesting to watch, though...

Their last slam match was a pretty competitive one:

USO 20 SF: Osaka bt Brady 7-6(1),3-6,6-3

Highlights ->


Brady has a good offensive baseline game, isn't shabby on defense, serve or return either from what I see. Should be a good contest if she can hold her nerves in her 1st slam final.

If Brady is on, Osaka will need atleast her A- game

Both tight and not at their best but Brady looks a lot more comfortable than Osaka to me. At least she can read the shot direction. Osaka looking clueless in defence right now.
