Tennis fans certainly know how to go all out, and Coco Gauff’s fan base is no exception. They support the World No. 3 through her wins and losses, consistently going the extra mile. Fans of all ages come from around the globe, including an elderly supporter who made it to her Instagram story during the 2024 China Open. This is just one example of the many who back Gauff, and she always reciprocates their love.

Gauff kicked off her 2025 season with a triumphant win against Tem Poland at the United Cup finals alongside Team USA. However, she faced a setback in the Australian Open quarterfinals against Paula Badosa, losing 7-5, 6-4. Despite this, her AO run was remarkable, and her outfits stole the show.

Earlier on Instagram, Gauff encountered a fan who shared a reel showcasing her New Balance shoes. The fan excitedly said, “I just got Coco’s shoes in. So here’s Coco’s shoes she played in yesterday and they are grey and white. And then here is the other one; she did not wear these last night. These are neon green and baby blue, these have a bit of dark green in the New Balance sign. And yeah, I love Coco.” Gauff’s heart melted when she reposted this moment on her story with “aw🥲❤❤.”

On the court, Coco Gauff dazzled in her customized New Balance outfits. After her impressive 6-4, 6-2 win over Leylah Fernandez in the third round, former World No. 4 Jelena Dokic praised Gauff’s kit as “one of the best we’ve ever seen.” The standout feature was her shoes—the ‘Coco CG2 sneakers’—which come in various colors. During her match against Kenin, Gauff revealed that these basketball-inspired shoes were influenced by her father’s wish for her to pursue basketball. Although Coco chose tennis, her decision has garnered support from fans worldwide.

Gauff shares many memorable moments with her fans, from adorable interactions to unique requests like signing laptops during her 2024 China Open run. She is becoming quite an icon for younger fans; many are even staying up past their bedtime to watch her perform!

With tournaments played across different time zones, tennis fans often burn the midnight oil. But fans are more than willing to make that sacrifice when a player as captivating as the World No.3 is on the court. Before heading to the Australian Open, Gauff teamed up with Taylor Fritz at the United Cup, leading Team USA to a stellar victory. As she delivered win after win, fans were on the edge of their seats. One fan even posted a photo on X, shared by her mother, capturing the excitement.

They shared the heartwarming moment with a picture of their toddler sitting close to the TV, watching Gauff on January 4. They wrote, “My toddler got a big girl bed 3 days ago so she’s been coming out in the middle of the night. I’m up watching @CocoGauff & this girl decided to pull up a chair🫠 reminds me of being up watching tennis down under fresh out of the hospital after giving birth #tennislover #unitedcup.” But that’s not all!

In another post, this fan captured their child imitating Gauff’s moves, captioning it, “Bed but not before copying @CocoGauff motion lol Coco’s youngest fan is off to bed #unitedcup #tennislover #tennisdownunder.” It’s clear that Gauff’s influence is crossing the generational divide. Perhaps we’ll see one of them on the court in the coming years. Only time will tell.

Now that her run at the Australian Open is over, there’s no telling what Gauff will do next. Despite her loss at the tournament, she remains undeterred. The season is just getting started, and with her loyal fans by her side, who knows what this young American will pull off next.
