Coco Gauff gives a great message to all the young players on the tour

After beating Stephens in the quarter-final, she talked about the true values of life during her on-court interview. She said, “Even last year, I think, I was kind of too focused on trying to fulfill other people’s expectations and I think it just enjoy life. I mean, I know, no matter how good or bad my career is, I think I’m a great person.”

“So, I think, that’s a message for all the young players out here… Your results, even in life in general, Your results, your job, or how much money you make, doesn’t define you as a person. So, just know that if you love yourself, who cares about what anyone else thinks,” she further said, as she gave a lovely message.

Since making her professional debut in 2018, Gauff has been making a lot of noise on the tour, as the next big American tennis star after Venus and Serena Williams. Her first Grand Slam debut was in the 2019 Wimbledon, where she beat Venus Williams in the first round, announcing herself to the world of tennis. Since then, she has been knocking on the door for a while, as she finally made it to the quarter-finals of the French Open last year.
