Finding a coach that helps you reach the peak of success is not an easy task. However, Serena Williams has always been blessed in this case. She was gifted with amazing coaches all through her life be it Rennae Stubbs, Patrick Mouratoglou, or her childhood coach Rick Macci.
Having such wonderful coaches by her side has truly made a difference in the career of the Williams sisters. And now other players are following in her path too such as recent grand slam winner Coco Gauff. Surprisingly even Serena?s former coach Rick Macci made a wonderful assumption about Coco Gauff and what waits for her in the future as she follows Serena?s footsteps.
