Miami Open 2022 final, Naomi Osaka vs Iga Swiatek: Where to watch, TV Schedule, Live stream details and more
Grand Slam champions Naomi Osaka and Iga Swiatek will battle it out for the 2022 Miami Open title on Saturday.
Swiatek's form over the last few weeks has been incredible. She won the previous two WTA 1000 tournaments in Qatar and Indian Wells. At the Miami Open, she clinched the World No. 1 ranking by winning her second-round match and has reached the final without dropping a set.
Swiatek is also on the verge of completing the Sunshine Double. It's a rare feat in tennis, as only three women, Steffi Graf in 1994 and 1996, Kim Clijsters in 2005 and Victoria Azarenka in 2016, have managed to accomplish it.
The 20-year-old is currently on a 16-match winning streak and is gunning for her sixth career title and her fourth at the WTA 1000 level.

Osaka, on the other hand, is enjoying a resurgence in Miami. The former World No. 1 has rediscovered the form that led her to four Grand Slam trophies. It has been an incredible turnaround for the Japanese after a disappointing outing at Indian Wells.
She has played quite well in Miami, defeating quality players like Angelique Kerber, Danielle Collins and Belinda Bencic to reach the title round.
This is Osaka's first final since winning the 2021 Australian Open. She's aiming to win her eighth career title and her third at the WTA 1000 level, having previously won the Indian Wells Open in 2018 and the China Open in 2019.
