Coco Gauff is forging a new path for herself after reaching her maiden Grand Slam final last month. Three years after her victory over Venus Williams at Wimbledon, she returns to the same place hoping to achieve bigger things in the sport.

At 18, she has broken into the Top 15 of the world rankings, while also displaying a dominant brand of tennis. Gauff will seek inspiration from her fellow compatriots- Serena and Venus Williams, winners of a combined 12 Wimbledon singles titles.
