Coco Gauf and her passion for Tennis

In a quote in her official bio, Gauff recalled, “I wasn’t much of a team person. I loved tennis. I was so-so about it in the beginning because when I was younger I didn’t want to practice at all. I just wanted to play with my friends. When I turned eight, that was when I played ‘Little Mo’ and after that I decided to do that for the rest of my life.”

As Gauff started working hard and dedicated all her time for tennis, she put herself on everyone’s radar as a superstar when she beat Venus Williams in the first round of Wimbledon in 2019.

The other female athlete with the highest salary

Gauff was ranked first on Sportico’s yearly list of the highest-paid female athletes, followed by eight professional tennis players, including Naomi Osaka. Then, both football star Megan Rapinoe and gymnast Simone Biles were included on this year’s list.

Well it is done, Coco! Congratulations on all your hard work. Let’s beat 2024 with the massive prestigious title!
