Coco Gauff‘s popularity has risen following her historic Grand Slam victory. Looking at the way the 19-year-old tennis sensation won her first Grand Slam title at the US Open this year, she has seen a rise on and off the tennis court. After this, there are a lot of discussions going on about whether she will be the future of tennis or not.

While Iga Swiatek and Aryna Sabalenka have started to uplift the upcoming generation of WTA, Gauff’s contribution is much needed. Recently, tennis Australia CEO Craig Tiley disclosed how the 2023 US Open Champions’ growing dominance can be directly connected to the growing popularity of sports.

Along with that, he also talked about how the game is lucky to have a player like her who can be trusted in the future.

He said, “We came through an era of having great champions, American champions.  We have the U.S. players reaching the highest levels of the game. That’s why Coco Gauff is going to be so great for the sport. It is the commercial engine of the sport globally. So, I think that’s great for the sport, having more of that. I do see some light at the end of the tunnel with that.”

While that was not it, he not only addressed the 19-year-old as a good asset for the sport. He also tagged her as the ‘commercial engine’. In addition, Tiley also showed confidence in her, saying that the teenage sensation has the capability to take the sport to great heights globally.
