Naomi Osaka overpowers Jennifer Brady to win second Australian Open

• Straight-sets success secures fourth major tennis crown
• Osaka prevails 6-4, 6-3 at Melbourne Park

In this unending pandemic and a scattered, disjointed year of tennis, there has been one consistent sight throughout: Naomi Osaka exhibiting her greatness under suffocating pressure. She is already a player whose profile is in the process of transcending her sport but, most importantly, she has the resume to back it up and it keeps on growing.

In a tight, gripping contest when she struggled and then soared, Osaka became a four-time grand slam champion at 23 by beating Jennifer Brady 6-4, 6-3 to win her second Australian Open.
