Coco Gauff is the US Open champion, and she has breezed through the Australian Open 3rd round in style without conceding a single set.
During the press conference, she revealed why she feels less pressure in Melbourne. She commented:
“Definitely more chill. You can even see in the press room, there’s only a couple of you guys here, whereas US Open it was full. Definitely more chill. I mean, look, I love talking to you guys. I see you pretty much every slam, which is great. You guys always ask good questions. It’s definitely more chill. I like it.
The crowd support is different, for sure. The last matches obviously I have been more the favorite in the crowd but it’s not like the New York crowd.
But I like Australian Open, and I like the chill vibes here. I feel less stress here. Just walking around in Melbourne, I don’t really get recognized that much, which is nice. Just walking to dinner, you know, maybe one or two people notice, and yeah, it’s something that I appreciate a lot.”
