Coco Gauff on her US Open 2023 win: "I told my mom, I said, 'It was an addictive feeling'"

Coco Gauff won her maiden Grand Slam title at the 2023 US Open, defeating Aryna Sabalenka 2-6, 6-3, 6-2 in the final.

The 19-year-old reflected on her triumph in her interview with Vogue, shedding light on the emotional impact of the milestone.

Gauff disclosed that she confided in her mother Candi after her win, describing clinching her maiden Major as an "addictive feeling" that she would pursue for the rest of her career.

"I told my mom, I literally said, ‘It was an addictive feeling.’ As soon as I felt that, I wanted to refeel it again," Gauff told Vogue. "I said, ‘Now I see how people get addicted to drugs.' That feeling was a drug. For the rest of my life, the rest of my career, I’m going to be chasing that high."

However, the American admitted that she would likely never be able to replicate the feeling of winning the 2023 US Open, regardless of how many victories she achieves.

"That was a feeling I’ll never be able to replicate no matter how many more matches I win. I want to win more so I can get as close to the feeling," she added.

Coco Gauff is currently competing at the WTA 1000 event in Indian Wells as the third seed.

Following a first-round bye, she kicks off her campaign against the winner of the match between Clara Burel and Wang Xiyu.
