Gauff on dealing with negativity

Coco Gauff faced an experienced player in the second round of ongoing Miami Open. She defeated 30-year-old Wang Qiang of China by 7-5, 6-4 and has reserved her seat to the third round. While speaking to the press post victory, she spoke about how similar Naomi and her thinking is when it comes to getting motivation out of negativity around them for the tournaments .

“I mean, yeah, for me definitely. I mean, people say you can’t do something. It definitely makes you more motivated, at least in my opinion. Yeah, I don’t really watch when my matches are commentated on all the time, and during tournaments I try not to like go on certain platforms that you know you’re probably going to see people say you can’t do this or that. So, yeah, I kind of try to stay away from it.” she said.
