While they may not have crossed paths on the tennis court, Coco Gauff and Serena Williams have come up against each other, albeit off the court. Gauff considers Williams as her idol and took inspiration from her to pursue tennis since childhood. Unfortunately, as Gauff was on the rise, Williams called an end to her career. Despite not facing each other on the court, the duo is locked in an unusual battle.

Recently, the American tennis legend launched her beauty brand, Wyn Beauty. It is another venture added to Williams’ list of growing businesses. Meanwhile, Gauff is also making waves in the beauty industry.

Coco Gauff enters a new partnership

Hours ago, the American sensation took to social media to announce her new partnership. She shared a picture of beauty products via a story on her official Instagram handle and said, “So excited to partner with @carolsdaughter for my first ever beauty shoot! You can shop what was used on set to achieve this look on Amazon!”

It is a multiyear deal wherein Carol’s Daughter will be named the official hair sponsor of a professional tennis player, Coco Gauff. Not only will Gauff follow suit of her idol, Williams, but also uplift Black beauty for a new generation.

Meanwhile, Williams also makes the news because of her brand, Wyn Beauty. It launched ten products across the face, eyes, and lips in a bid to enhance the 5-minute make-up game. Thus, emulating her idol, Gauff is excited about what future opportunities it holds by partnering with a beauty brand.
