Nothing can ever fully replace Coco Gauff’s passion for tennis. Right now, the 19-year-old is taking a whole new approach to enjoying her off-season. She’s doing the exact opposite of what players all over the world are doing, which is hanging out and doing things other than playing the sport. The 2023 US Open champion recently gave racket ball sports other than tennis a try. Squash is another racket-and-ball sport that Coco Gauff recently attempted.
Gauff had an outstanding 2023 campaign, winning multiple singles and doubles matches. Her victories in the singles division included the US Open, Cincinnati Masters, ASB Classic, and Citi Open titles.
Right now, Coco Gauff is having fun off the tennis court. She recently posted a video of herself playing squash on social media. She wrote in her post that although she is trying out different sports every week, she still thinks tennis is the greatest racquet sport.
Gauff captioned her Instagram story: “@kineticracquet, a new sport every week. Tennis is still the best racquet sport, though.”
