Karolína Muchová vs Naomi Osaka Prediction | US Open QF

The left-handed improvisor, currently number 13 on the WTA and holding the 11th seed, Karolína Muchová, ranks number 13 on the WTA. After a nearly three-hour, hard-fought victory in the 4th round against Marta Kostyuk, Muchová (6-3, 6-7 (0), 6-3) comes into the 2025 US Open quarterfinals fresher. Along with that, Muchová also holds a 16-12 record for 2025. Prior to that, she accumulated resilient wins against Venus Williams, Sorana Cîrstea, and Linda Novkola, showcasing her rare one-handed backhand, a plethora of angles, and elite court coverage. Muchová excels on hard courts where her mixture of slice, drop shots, and depth keep the powered baseline players off balance, and she is efficient in return games won and in converting break points through tactical patience. Fitness and match craft have helped her recover from long sets and tight tiebreaks, making her a dangerous underdog in best-of-three Slams who often takes a set off bigger names in extended rallies.
🇯🇵 Naomi Osaka
Naomi Osaka is a four-time Grand Slam champion who is currently ranked 24th in the WTA and is seeded 23rd at the US Open. She is coming in at the top of her form, having defeated Coco Gauff with a score of 6-3, 6-2 in the round of 16 and is now looking forward to her first quarterfinal since 2021. She began her 2025 season with a title at the WTA 125 in Saint-Malo, and has since proven her form by taking runner-up in Montreal. Her record this year stands at 27-12. Her gameplay is characterised by heavy, flat groundstrokes, a high-impact first serve, and the ability to close out points quickly. She averaged an excellent rate of first serve points in New York's third round. The 27 year old has the combined advantages of big-match experience and tactical adjustments, which pose a threat to players who rely on variety. Osaka tries to seize control of the baseline and finish points quickly, which defines her style. This makes her the favourite but also vulnerable to Muchová’s variations and changes.
