The 19-year-old has two younger brothers and frequently shares about them on social media at various family gatherings or events. Recently, as she was enjoying her time at Indian Wells, she took to her Instagram account and vented about how she found one of her lost hoodies on her 16-year-old brother’s account.

She uploaded a photo of her brother from his Instagram account, in which he was seen sporting a yellow hoodie, seemingly belonging to her elder sister. Along with that, the US Open champion also complained about her brother, but at the same time, just like a big sister, she went ahead and even supported him.

She wrote, “He stole my hoodie but go like a photo or whatever, my hoodie was missing for months and he just pops options on da gram with it, smh.” Well-known for his baseball skills, Codey Gauff regularly shares his passion for the game on social media. But it’s not simply his sporting achievements that grab attention—Cameron, his younger sibling, is also crucial to Coco’s professional success.

Cameron’s impact goes beyond simple backing; he participated in Coco’s most recent endeavor, working with New Balance to create the ground-breaking ‘COCO CGI’ sneaker line. However, while he might irritate her as a sister, at the same time, he has also inspired her to be a good version of herself.

A few months ago, the Grand Slam champion divulged personal details about her family relationships, especially her bond with her brother, in a candid interview. She showed much respect for Codey during the open conversation and acknowledged the huge influence he has had on her life on both a personal and professional level.

She stated, “Especially my brother Codey. He has this really confident but low-key persona about him. That’s something that I really try to emulate on the court. She further added: “I’m the oldest of three siblings. Maybe that has something to play with it. I don’t know. I feel like I have learned a lot quickly.”

Along with that, she also highlighted how a lot of things are learned from kids – “I think honestly you learn almost more from kids that you do from adults at times, because they are so, I guess, unbiased and carefree in the world,”
