Naomi did get wobbly in both 2nd sets when she serving down

I dont think Petra could handle the depth and aggression of Osaka's shot, that well during the match and her serve went missing at times

I think it was more P than N to be honest Kate. Yes she might have missed a bit, but that more forced. As for the US Open I think it's fair to say her flow was disrupted :D

But Osaka is the first woman to win the next slam after her first... since Evert?

I was referring to her dropping serve in the 2nd set of the SF

That'd be the end of his career.

I think Osaka is the better returner. And quicker. And more consistent overall. And... I mean... Kvitova is amazing. But Osaka already looks like someone headed for all time greatness.

Which I agree seems premature. But I just don't see any reason, barring injury, where she doesn't win 10 plus slams.
