Greet Minnen vs Naomi Osaka prediction
Naomi Osaka’s new coach helped turbocharge a resurgence from the Japanese star on court recently. The Canadian Open was dominated throughout by Osaka, who made it all the way to the final before losing to 18-year-old wonderkid Victoria Mboko. That tournament underlined the quality Osaka has, let’s not forget this is a four-time Grand Slam champion we are taking about with all four of those triumphs coming on the hard court.
This only serves to show just how difficult this assignment is for Greet Minnen, who needs to try and frustrate Osaka, force her to make errors and potentially doubt herself on court. Tennis is a mental game as much as it is physical, so getting a good start against Osaka could be worth its weight in gold.
There’s always question marks these days regarding what sort of Osaka we will see on the court, but in a competition like this which brings back such happy memories for her and especially on this surface, it would be no surprise to see Osaka dominate. Back her to defeat Minnen in two sets.
