12 month and 2025 stats favour Osaka on serve. Stats for their last 10 on hard strongly favour Osaka. She has the higher ROI.
Lay Gauff around 1.45 and remove liability at 1.90. Good chance of 3 sets.
Update: Gauff was broken in the first game. I expected her to be competitive but she did not have a single break point in the match.
I laid Osaka after that first break. In her first 3 service games, Osaka lost just 1 point so I exited. Gauff was broken again when serving at 3-5. I did not enter in the second set.
Osaka won 6-3, 6-2.
