It was the world, won Grand Slams and had never reached a brick powder final

There is always a first time. Even for tennis players who lived everything, or almost everything. Because Naomi Osaka arrived at … his first final on brick dust!

The Japanese, who quickly released in Madrid, was invited west of France to confirm the famous “There are no two without three.” Consecutively beat three stores like The Jewish Jacquemot, Heaven (6-2, 4-6 and 6-0 in Semis) to reach the famous definition of WTA 125. On the other side, Viktorija Golubic and Kaja Juvan will fight for second place in the final.
