After her first-round victory at the French Open 2023, Gauff was asked a question that made her eyes light up. At the post-match press conference, she was asked what superheroes have influenced her.
Gauff shared, “My favorite superhero is Spider-Man. Love him. Love Black Panther. Then The Flash and Storm. There’s a lot. Yeah, I think when I’m on the court, you know, the superpowers aren’t in real life, but I’ve got a good serve, got a good backhand, pretty fast. There’s a little of my superpowers on the court.”
