Coco Gauff had a lot of critics, but this year she silenced them despite coming out as a 15-year-old and becoming popular as a teenager.
Since Coco Gauff made her debut at Wimbledon a few years ago, many people have anticipated that she will have a bright future. Those who are gifted often have high expectations that are quickly exceeded, and when those expectations are not met, the doubters tend to surface.
It was obviously incorrect for some to even suggest that Gauff would never amount to much. Gauff won the US Open earlier this year, so we didn’t even have to wait long for her to disprove their claims.
In an interview, her close friend Christopher Eubanks said that she won the trophy at the ideal moment and that he felt delighted for her.
Eubanks expressed his thoughts about Gauff and said: “She has finally proved the naysayers wrong, some said that she would never win a Grand Slam. She’s been able to do that, now it’s about how many she will get. So there’s still going to be outside expectations, there’s still going to be people saying that she can never get more than one or the people doubting the validity of the US Open run.”
Understanding Gauff, Eubanks is certain that she doesn’t give a damn about what people think or say. She strives to accomplish her goals and has a great sense of self-awareness. She will continue to put in a lot of effort to reach even greater heights; the US Open was just the beginning.
He added: “It doesn’t matter at this point. In her team and in her mind, she has done what she has done, now let’s just continue to enjoy this process let’s just continue to put in the work that got her to this point.”
