Naomi Osaka has been through a lot in the last few months. Her performances certainly went downhill after the French Open. Especially her performance at the Tokyo Olympics surprised tennis fans as she was defeated by World No. 39 Marketa Vondrousova in the third round in straight sets.

However, the way Osaka has started off at the US Open goes on to suggest that she is well and truly back in form. She defeated Marie Bouzková in the first round in straight sets, and got a walkover in the second round as Olga Danilović decided to withdraw from the competition.

On the other hand, Leylah Fernandez has been in magnificent form at the US Open. She defeated Kaia Kanepi in her second round in straight sets after thrashing Ana Konjuh in a similar fashion in the first round. She is expected to give a tough fight to World No. 3.

Leylah has been in superb form at the US Open. She had absolutely no trouble in the first two rounds and she ended up winning both without much hassle. However, Osaka will walk into the encounter as a firm favorite simply because of her experience of defeating the absolute best in the business, and her recent form in the US Open which has been pretty decent as well.
