Victoria Mboko didn’t even have a picture on the WTA website before the National Bank Open in Montreal. Now, the 18-year-old is set to face Naomi Osaka in the first WTA final of her career.

Osaka has made some progress since returning in last year's Australian Open. She won two matches in both the Australian Open and Wimbledon this year, has earned $725,727 in prize money so far and reached the No. 49 spot in the WTA rankings, with a higher ranking likely on the way by making the final.

Victoria Mboko completed the best two weeks of her career by winning her first WTA Tour-level title at the National Bank Open in Montreal. Mboko made history, beating four Grand Slam champions, including top seed Coco Gauff in the third and Naomi Osaka in Thursday’s final.
