Cori Gauff has reached a sort of stardom at a very early age, especially thanks to her father Corey, who is also her longtime coach. The American sensation is also using the help of some of the coaches, and she’s also used to train at the Mouratoglou Academy in South France. However, her father remains her main coach.
In a recent video, Coco talks about her normal day, why she loves living in Delray Beach (Florida), and the reasons why she is so happy about having her father coaching her.
Coco Gauff commented: “Most of my family lives in Florida. It’s like to be surrounded by people you love, and my dad, having him as my coach is great because he keeps practice fun.”
Both Coco’s father and mother left their job to follow their daughter. While her father Corey is focused on coaching Coco, her mother Candy takes care of the homeschooling and domestic matters.
