Japanese player  Naomi Osaka defeated Jennifer Brady in the final of the Australian Open to clinch the women's singles title on Saturday. 

 Naomi Osaka won her second Australian Open 2021 women's singles trophy and a fourth Grand Slam title on Saturday as she beat American Jennifer Brady 6-4, 6-3 in an hour and 17 minutes at the Rod Laver Arena. The Japanese player has won the Australian Open for the second time right after becoming the US Open champion in the previous year. Osaka had won her first and second Grand Slam title in the same fashion in 2018 and 2019. 

Talking about the game,  Brady started nervously and got broken early in the first set. After winning first set, the confident  Osaka started the second set on fire as she was able to find her first serves and put on show her dominant forehand and backhand. Osaka blows Brady away initially and take a 4-0 lead in the second set. However, Brady fought back hard and even broke back Osaka once but the Japanese held her nerves while serving for the match and won her service game 40-0 to take the title.

With this victory, Osaka now has to her name two US Open titles (2018, 2020) and two Australian Open trophies (2019, 2021). Osaka will rise to world No.2 with the title in Melbourne.
