Willington: Former world number one and current number 57 Naomi Osaka has qualified for the final of the Auckland, New Zealand, 250-point tennis tournament, after defeating Alicia Parkes in two sets to none, (6-4, 6-2) on Saturday, to set a date with Denmark's Clara Towson in the final, slated for Sunday.
The Japanese, who has won four Grand Slam titles, will try to win her first title, in her first final since 2022 Miami Championshipwhich was won by Poland's Iga Swiatek.
