It’s about that time! In the past couple of weeks, we’ve spent time loosely discussing Final X; however, it’s time to start talking about the individual matches themselves. Over the next couple of weeks, we’ll break down all 20 Final X matchups - leading into the event itself on June 14th, from Newark, New Jersey.
Our next preview is in women’s freestyle at 65 kg. There will be a lot of familiarity in this series between two-time Senior world medalist Macey Kilty and US Open champion Aine Drury. The pair have met multiple times in high-stakes matches within the last year. They’ll do it again in Newark. The previous matchups have leaned heavily toward Kilty, so will Drury be able to close the gap?
