Last year, Gauff opened up about her passion for Halloween.


Coco Gauff discussed her favorite holiday last year

In a press conference after the 2023 WTA Finals, Coco Gauff recalled her childhood days and said she always loved to dress up. She also shared her favorite costume for Halloween.

"I've always been passionate about Halloween since I was a kid. I always loved to dress up. I would do it, like, year-round. I've always talked about wanting to go to cosplay, the conventions and all of that. My favorite Halloween costume I've done as a family was a Scooby-Doo one a couple of years ago. I thought that was pretty cool," Coco Gauff said.
"For me, I did like the moon -- I don't know. I think I did Thor a while ago, and Raven last year was really cool. Then Freddy Krueger was obviously last minute. My brother wanted to be Chucky for Halloween. I said, 'We should all be fictional serial killers,' and that's what we did."

Gauff had an incredible 2024 season as she won the WTA Finals and clinched the China Open.
