Coco Gauff Makes Bold Proclamation Ahead of Australian Open.
win one, next thing you know, you’re thinking of winning 10. That’s the case for American tennis star Coco Gauff, who is coming off her breakthrough victory in the U.S. Open to close last year’s majors calendar with high hopes in this year’s Australian Open. Gauff enters the tournament as the No. 4 seed, which matches her No. 4 ranking from the WTA
Gauff mentioned that putting the U.S. Open win behind her was not too difficult because she always intended on winning more than one Grand Slam event. When the natural follow-up came–how many do you want to win–Gauff allowed herself to get a little bold.
“I would say recently, I feel like I wanted to get double digits,” Gauff said in her pre-tournament press conference. “That’s like, cool. But there’s no number. Yeah, who knows? That could change depending on how my career goes. But right now I would say double digits would be pretty awesome. I don’t know if that will happen but I think that’s a high goal. And setting my goals high pushes me beyond what I think I can do.”
