The World Number 3 had quite an eventful US Open last year when she defeated Aryna Sabalenka to win the title in front of her home fans. During an interview at the tournament, she also dropped a major hint about her relationship status. Gauff mentioned her boyfriend during a post-match press conference. However, she didn’t reveal his name, remaining tight-lipped about it.
Gauff also went on to credit her boyfriend for the US Open victory. The two had a deep conversation the night before the final, which she later revealed during an interview.
She said, “I just called my boyfriend, and I told him let’s talk until it’s time to go to sleep so we spoke until 1:00 a.m. and then I went to sleep. I woke up this morning. Yeah, when I lost the first set I still felt I was into the match and I said, you know, I’m going to give it my all.”
Despite mentioning her boyfriend on numerous occasions, Gauff has yet to reveal his name. She has been very secretive about it and often dodged questions surrounding who her boyfriend was, which has kept her fans guessing.
When will Coco Gauff confirm her romantic status?
The 2023 US Open wasn’t the first time Gauff mentioned her boyfriend. Back in April last year, she revealed, “It makes you feel like you want to be in love,” after listening to a harp melody. This occurred during an interview and the host further asked her about her love life.
However, Gauff dodged the question and revealed that she hoped her boyfriend didn’t see it. As a result, she hinted that their relationship is still under wraps, although Gauff has been in a serious relationship for a long time.
