Iga Swiatek v Naomi Osaka: Could this be next rivalry in women's tennis with Ashleigh Barty, Serena Williams out?
If there’s one thing the WTA Tour has been missing over the last five years it’s a top-tier rivalry. Which is probably why, after just the second career meeting between Iga Swiatek and Naomi Osaka, there were hopeful thoughts and musings that this could be a rivalry that grows, develops, evolves, and becomes the marquee match-up in women’s tennis for years to come. Wishful thinking perhaps at this stage, but the starting point is there.
