‘I know what I need to do’ Coco Gauff

In a recent interview, Coco Gauff came ahead and talked about the roles and responsibilities that she has as the CEO of her company. At just 19, Coco Gauff isn’t just a tennis professional, she’s also the boss of Team Coco. When she was younger, around 14 or 15, her parents handled a lot for her so she could focus on tennis. But as the years passed, Coco got more vocal about what she wanted, both on and off the court.

“I’ve definitely been more vocal about what I want on and off the court. Yeah, at first, like 15, 16, my parents were doing a lot of it for me just so I could focus on tennis. Now moving into more of the role. I’m getting older, having to make more decisions, all of that, on and off court,” said Gauff in the interview.

Talking further about it, she suggested that she quite clearly knows what she wants in her life. Coco believes in herself, knows what she needs to do to succeed, and relies on her team, including coaches and advisors, for guidance. She believes in the fact that despite knowing things, having the right team is very essential as they can help you land a lot of success.

“I think for me, I know myself pretty well. I know what I need to do to succeed, not every single thing. That’s why we have coaches and people that advise me. As a player, I think all the great players kind of know what they need to do and need help from others. I think for me, I know what I need to do. It’s just all about having the right team to guide me into that path on how I want to do it or how I want to train or how I want to, I don’t know, work with certain brands, stuff like that. It’s definitely been a progress with each year,” Gauff further added in the interview.

Every year, she’s getting better at this CEO stuff, learning the ropes of adulthood, and enjoying the progress along the way. Coco Gauff’s journey is a story of growth, from tennis prodigy to calling the shots in Team Coco.
