In a recent interview, Pere Riba shared his experience of coaching Coco Gauff. He suggested that her success was due to her upbringing and that she had a very clear idea of how to deal with things. He later went ahead to mention that on a scale of 10, she was a 12.

“When you know more of her, you can see that is how she is—the education, the manners, how she treats the people, the way that she finishes the practice, stays outdoors for the fans. She is taking care of the things. I say many times to her, ‘Coco, you are too nice.’ She is unbelievable. Coco is 12 points from 10,” said Riba about Gauff.

Thus, the time that the two spent together was really worthwhile for Coco Gauff as she got to learn not much from him and developed herself as a complete player under his guidance. As confirmation is awaited of the split, fans and experts can only wait with bated breath.
