Coco Gauff has been showing us her skills in the sport for a while now. While she is one of the best players on the tour right now, Gauff has also faced situations where she has not been able to play her best. However, she always ends up returning to her usual form. We saw it recently in her opening-round clash in the Indian Wells Masters, where she sealed a great comeback.

The entire tennis world loved her performance, including the former coach of Serena Williams, who went on to praise her on her social media page with a rousing message.

Serena Williams’ former coach lauds Coco Gauff – “There are so many players that could learn a lot from her”

In her opening round clash in the BNP Paribas Open, Gauff played against Clara Burel. The match began with a surprising show as Burel took the first set off of Gauff 6-2. However, the result would not remain the same as Gauff, who then won the second set 6-3. The final set was a difficult contest as it went to a tie-break, and the American sensation won the clash.

Highly impressed at the spectacle, Rennae Stubbs, Serena Williams’ former coach, wrote, “Gotta hand it to @CocoGauff she finds a way. There are so many players that could learn a lot from her. She struggled today in a lot of departments but she NEVER EVER gives up & that in the end is often way more important than perfect strokes! ❤️& composure make the difference!”

Stubbs also regarded Gauff as she was struggling earlier this year. While she was underwhelmed by her results, she was confident that she would play much better when she entered the American hard court swing.

Rennae Stubbs has full confidence in Coco Gauff

In a recent episode of Racquet’s Rennae Stubbs Podcast, the 52-year-old Australian coach brought up Coco Gauff’s recent troubles. While admitting that her recent performances had fallen short, Stubbs was certain that she would perform better at home. Stubbs said, “And you know, getting her back into the US obviously, with Indian Wells and Miami, she’ll have tremendous support. So that really does help. And she does play great with support.”

She said that due to the population in the Middle East being heavily focused on work, it was difficult for a player to have support until they reached the later stages of a championship. She further believed that Gauff performed much better with support and that the Sunshine Doubles would do wonders for her performance.

Stubbs was correct so far, as Gauff won her first-round clash with a resounding victory. Now, she will play against Lucia Bronzetti, hoping to claim another victory.
