Born in the age of athlete creators, she knows how to get the spectator’s pulse racing. On the way to WTA glory, the young tennis sensation is collecting trophies one after the other; but what does she do with them afterward?

With seven WTA Tour singles titles and eight doubles titles, world no. 3 has been stacking trophies, but not at her own house.

Coco Gauff Doesn’t Want To Clutter Her Space With Silverware

Recently on a podcast with The AO Show, the 19-year-old revealed that she isn’t too fascinated with trophies, “I think I’ll actually just leave them at my parent’s house. I don’t want to clutter my space.” She added, “So yeah, honestly, my US Open trophy. I think I’ve only like pulled it out like once since then. And that’s because family came over and they wanted to see it. But I think I’ll probably just leave it at my parent’s house. Maybe just put a picture of like the trophy in the room or something.”

Gauff stated her ambitions for this year to be, “Just moving out, getting my own place and try to be an adult.” This answer was rightly deemed as highly refreshing and relatable by the podcaster.
