Coco Gauff chats with her ‘biggest fan’
“You are one of the greatest tennis players ever. I like your forehands and backhands,” said Brooke before asking Gauff what was one of the happiest moments for her in tennis.
“I would say definitely Wimbledon. Those whole two weeks were definitely so much fun for me and also the Australian Open was really fun for me cause that was the first time I got a cheering squad like in a foreign country. So that was really cool for me,” Gauff replied.
Brooke was also curious to know when Gauff started playing tennis and how did she know that she wanted to play tennis.
“My dad put me in all the sports, so I did Basketball, Soccer, Dance. I did almost everything to think of and I liked tennis the most and I used to hit against the garage or outside of my house and that’s how first got into it, ” the American star said.
