Coco Gauff?s Exponential Growth Poses Serious Threat to Idol Roger Federer?s $10 Billion Pride as New Off-Court Rivalry Emerges in Tennis

Regardless of the Grand Slams, Swiss legend Roger Federer is considered the G.O.A.T. by the majority of the tennis community. American sensation Coco Gauff is no different. Gauff has cited Serena Williams as the reason she plays tennis on multiple occasions. But Federer’s demeanor on and off the court inspired the young champion to nurture hers after the Swiss legend. After winning her third round in the 2021 Wimbledon Championships, the American disclosed that she also aims to be a role model like her idol, Federer.

The American star and the Swiss veteran have their own tennis collection. But Gauff, at just 19 years, is already challenging the 42-year-old with her ‘spookiness.’

The World No.3 is making her dream come true as she targets the ‘triple-threat’ posed by the Swiss Maestro. Gauff has been an enormous asset to her sponsors since she signed with them. Her US Open glory added heavily anticipated ‘zeroes’ to her primary sponsor, and a new collection was unveiled, honoring Gauff and her most successful season.

New Balance introduced the Halloween unique collection to make Gauff’s ‘Spooky Season’ cheerful. The Coco CG1, Gauff’s first New Balance collection, returned with a holiday twist, celebrating her US Open win. As a special Halloween edition, the $4.4 Billion worth of NB launched dark-themed sneakers in Black with Purple detailing. The sneakers proudly flaunt ‘Coco Gauff’ on its tongue and the brand name in cursive on the upper.

The other side of the upper boasted a huge ‘N’ in the capital, and the brand logo was engraved in purple at the bottom of the sneaker. Spooky versions of the Coco CG1 will be available to claim from the 6th of October. The sneakers cost $170, while Roger Federer’s $10 Billion worth of ‘On’ brand pair typically cost $200.

Federer’s On collection, ‘THE ROGER,’ took two years of research and testing, as the sneakers were developed by analyzing the sensory feedback. While King Roger’s collections aim to provide perfect grips to athletes according to the surfaces they play, Gauff’s new version leans more toward funky, styled, and color pop. But one primary difference characterizes the consumers’ personality as people first notice footwear to judge one’s personality.

The collections of the NB and On speak volumes about the teen and the veteran

THE ROGER collection comes in pastel colors except for Federer’s favorite, Black. But the French Open finalist’s collection was never plain. Federer is always calm and pleasant, on and off the court. He imbibed his persona into his sneaker collection. The American is the opposite of the 20-time Slam champion.

Gauff is loud, bold, and fierce on the court. Her sneaker collection also comes in color pop and dark designs. The American teen will sport her new spooky display in the WTA Finals in November. Right now, the new queen of American tennis is playing her first tournament after her Slam glory at the China Open.

The American top seed is focusing on both doubles and singles of the WTA 1000 event. She will play Veronika Kudermetova on 5th October. Kudermetova stunned Iga Swiatek and Jessica Pegula to win the Tokyo Open and is eyeing another big win. Gauff is focused on claiming her second WTA 1000 title with newfound Grand Slam confidence.
