Yeah, we have just started this week, and right now we, you know, have plans just for the week. I mean, obviously, how things go, we may expand in future tournaments. Working with him has been great. I really didn’t know him that well other than the commentating, just a little bit seeing his past coaching performances, but those were before I was born (smiling).”

Gauff reveals she was a little worried prior to starting with Gilbert

While starting out new things, people can sometimes get a little worried about how things would turn out to be. Coco revealed that she was no different. She mentioned she was a bit worried because of the age difference between the two. However, her anxieties faded away as Brad turned out to be a fun-loving guy who did not let the age difference become a hindrance.

Coco said, “Yeah, he’s a very funny man. I was a little bit worried, because he is older, that I thought the generational thing, I didn’t want to be with someone who’s a wall. But he’s definitely not a wall. He’s making us laugh on the court constantly. I think he just makes the game fun and makes it simple. So I’m hoping if everything goes well we probably will continue after this.”

Thus, under her new coach, Coco is once again preparing to take the tennis world by storm and claim her dominance. With the US Open inching closer with each passing day, her hunger to dominate in front of her home crowd stands tall. Do you think she will deliver and raise the trophy this time? Let us know!
