LONDON (AP) — Naomi Osaka put Japan a step away from reaching the Billie Jean King Cup Finals with a 6-2, 7-6 (5) victory over Kazakhstan’s Yulia Putintseva. The four-time Grand Slam champion’s win in Tokyo on Friday followed Nao Hibino’s 6-1, 6-0 victory over Anna Danilina to give Japan a 2-0 lead in the qualifying round for the women’s team competition. Iga Swiatek helped Poland go ahead 2-0 against Switzerland, and Emma Raducanu evened things at 1-all for Britain against France. The BJK Cup Finals will be held in Spain in November.
