Naomi Osaka vs Camila Osorio: Preview

The defending champion this year, Naomi Osaka is all set to start her hunt for the 5th major. Naomi began her season at the 2022 Melbourne Summer Set where she gave a walkover before her semi-final clash as she felt some difficulty after playing tennis after nearly 100 days. Osaka played some fantastic tennis in her three matches in Melbourne and will be confident coming for the Slam. Naomi has a 25-4 record at Melbourne Park having won the Slam twice.

Camila Osorio will begin her season directly at the Grand Slam. After she lost in the 2nd qualifying round of the 2020 Australian Open, the Columbian will be making her debut in the main-draw of the Australian Open this year. Except for the Australian Open, she made her main-draw Slam debut last year with her 3rd round run at 2021 Wimbledon being her best record at Grand Slam events so far in her short career.

Naomi Osaka vs Camila Osorio: Head to Head

This will be the first-ever meeting between the duo, hence the head-to-head stands at 0-0.

Naomi Osaka vs Camila Osorio: Prediction

Naomi will come into the tie with a career hardcourt record of 159-72 and was 16-4 on the surface last season while finishing the 2021 season with a record of 18-6 across all surfaces. Camila will take the court with a career hardcourt record of 42-27 and was 14-12 on the surface last season and had a 35-17 record for the season across all surfaces.

Looking at these numbers and considering their form in the 2021 season, Naomi does look the favourite for the clash as Osorio is yet to begin her season while Osaka has started well and the Columbian will find it difficult to overcome the Japanese superstar.

Prediction: Naomi Osaka to win in 3-sets.
