About
Born in Atlanta and raised in Florida, Coco Gauff was a junior phenomenon, winning the 2018 Roland Garros girls' title at 14. Her senior breakthrough came at Wimbledon 2019, a 15-year-old beating Venus Williams on debut. After several years of building a complete game around her movement and serve, she captured her first Grand Slam at the 2023 US Open and the 2025 Roland Garros, settling into the top three of the WTA rankings.

Playing style
An athletic counter-puncher whose game is built around tour-leading movement and a heavy serve. Has worked steadily to flatten and shorten the forehand swing under Brad Gilbert and J.J. Wolf, and the two-handed backhand is one of the most consistent point-builders in the women's game. Mental strength in late-set scenarios is now a defining trait.
