"omggg congrats," Coco Gauff wrote on Gabby Thomas' post
Gauff is an exciting young talent in the world of tennis right now. She made her professional debut in 2018 at an ITF tournament in Florida, and has continued to progress further in her development.
She made her Olympics debut in Paris last year, where she competed in the singles, women's doubles, and mixed doubles. Despite not being able to capture a medal, Gauff has managed to achieve a lot in her career at a young age. She won the U.S Open in 2023, becoming one of the youngest women to ever win the competition.
Coco Gauff's disappointing 2025 so far
Coco Gauff recently competed at the Miami Open, where she was knocked out in the fourth round of the tournament. The American lost to the unseeded Magda Linette 6-4, 6-4 and missed out on a spot in the quarter-finals. Gauff struggled with her serve during the match, and committed 12 double-faults.
Magda Linette later said she was looking to put pressure on Gauff's serve.
"It was really important for me to keep pressing Coco's serve to make sure she feels the pressure," Linette said.
Gauff has struggled with issues like this before, previously committing 21 double-faults at the Wuhan Open in 2024. Earlier this year, she was knocked out of the Australian Open by Spain's Paula Badosa, where she committed 25 unforced errors and six double-faults. She will look to find her form heading into the clay court swing.
