The American tennis prodigy, Coco Gauff, had a bitter-sweet start to the season. She won her 3rd WTA title, ASB Classic, at the beginning of the season. However, the season-opening major, the Australian Open, proved to be a disappointment for the prodigy. But the teenager has not let that affect her, as she remained as lively as ever.
