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.
