Coco Gauff, the American tennis star, recently joined countless other renowned personalities in expressing her frustration about the new Twitter rules. Twitter recently launched its new subscription plan called ‘Twitter Blue’ that allows users to access exclusive features such as the ability to undo tweets, change the theme of their app, and bookmark tweets into folders. However, this new development has been met with mixed reactions, especially from renowned names in the sports realm.

Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer are among those who recently lost their Twitter verification badge, while Novak Djokovic is already subscribed to Twitter Blue. Against this backdrop, Gauff’s recent reaction to the loss of her blue tick is making headlines. In a recent tweet, the young American tennis ace expressed her lack of concern about the loss of her verification badge and took a cheeky dig at the ‘Blue Bird App.’

The verification badge is reserved for vetted accounts by the social media platform. Gauff‘s latest tweet about her blue tick loss may seem like a small matter. However, it has touched on a larger debate about the role of social media status in our existence. This is not the first time a celebrity has had their Twitter verification badge removed. Twitter has been actively removing blue ticks from inactive or incomplete accounts.

Gauff’s response to the situation is both humorous and relatable. It highlights the fact that the Twitter blue tick is not reflective of one’s true worth or accomplishments.

In a now deleted tweet, Gauff wrote, “First time logging into Twitter in a couple of weeks… realized my blue check is gone. you’ll have that.”

The young American tennis star also said, “..I don’t even pay for my Netflix subscription so why does the bird app think I’m gonna pay for a badge of online status that essentially means nothing 💀 this is funny.”

Despite her apparent lack of concern, the 2022 Roland Garros finalist once expressed her love for social media.

The young tennis star even shifted to a strict screen-time limit for herself. Apart from TikTok, Gauff’s Instagram account is a treasure trove of stunning photos, inspirational quotes, and funny moments. Her fans love her social media presence as it provides them with an inside look into her life on and off the court.
