Today, I wanna talk about someone I’ve been following pretty closely lately – Coco Gauff. You know, the tennis player. I started looking into her because, well, she’s been making waves, and I was curious. What’s the deal with this young athlete, right?
So, I dug around a bit and found out some interesting stuff. First off, her family’s pretty tight-knit. Coco’s got two younger brothers, Codey and Cameron. It’s kinda sweet, she’s just their big sis to them, even though she’s, like, a superstar on the court.
Then there’s her dad, Corey Gauff. Here’s where it gets interesting. He’s not just her dad, he’s also her coach. Yeah, you heard that right. I found it a bit unusual since he used to be a basketball guy, but hey, it seems to be working for them, the coach-dad duo is quite successful. Some people online were saying he was just a motivator, not a real coach, but Coco set the record straight. It’s like, “Nah, he’s the real deal, folks.”
- Coco’s parents have been together for over 20 years, that’s some serious commitment.
- They’re always there at her matches, cheering her on.
- Even her mom, Candi, and dad were athletes back in the day. It’s in her blood, I guess.
I watched some of her matches, and you can see her dad getting super into it. There was this one time during the US Open, he had to leave his seat because he was so nervous. Can you believe it? He was walking around the stadium to calm down. That’s some serious dad-level stress right there. I have to admire this family’s passion and dedication.
Her Success
Now, about the money, she seems pretty chill about it. Coco said once, “I knew there was money, but I try not to never play for this.” That’s a cool attitude, right? It’s not all about the cash for her. But still, she’s doing pretty well for herself. She even bought her parents a fancy house last year and got one for herself too. Not too shabby for a young athlete, huh?
So yeah, that’s what I’ve learned about Coco Gauff. She’s not just a talented tennis player, she’s also got a supportive family behind her. It’s a pretty cool story, and I’m definitely gonna keep an eye on her career. Who knows what she’ll achieve next?
