They're both very likeable and easy to cheer for.

Radacanu wins

The two finalists combined are not as old as Serena Williams

This will be the first all teenager final since 1999, when 17 year old Serena defeated 18 year old Martina Hingis

With Federer and Nadal not playing, the men's final is predictably Djokovic against whoever.

The women's game again proves more interesting. Two newcomers in the women's finals, while Djokovic makes his 1,000 appearance....

Both the women's finalists seem to be pretty cool young women.

I guess LAF was either tired or had some nerves- her first serve failed her miserably.

What are the odds neither sees another Major final?

The women's game has so many young potential stars. Barty, Osaka, Guaff, Sabalenka, Brady, Raducanu, Fernandez.

The men's game has Medvedev, Tsitsipas & Berrettini right now only. Reilly Opelka & Taylor Fritz are likely the two best young USA prospects.

I'd guess Raducanu is a more likely one shot than Fernandez
