Victoria Azarenka and Naomi Osaka have unfinished business. The pair were set to face off in the Western & Southern Open final but the Japanese star withdrew with a hamstring injury. Now, one will finally come out on top.

Azarenka upset Serena Williams in the semifinals after losing the first set while Osaka took down first-time semifinalist Jennifer Brady. Both players are excited to settle the score, especially Azarenka.

"Very excited about that (final). I'm as excited as I was last time," Azarenka told reporters after her semifinal match. The 31-year-old has kept an eye on Osaka throughout the tournament.

Osaka is the one with the superior head-to-head record (2-1) against the mom of one. Both players have the same number of Grand Slam titles (two), but Azarenka has yet to win the US Open and hasn't raised a major trophy since the 2013 Australian Open.

With the strangest US Open ever coming to an end, now is the time to decide: which female finalist will head home with the title?
