In an interview with E!News, Gauff recently shared that while she'll talk to anyone after a good match, she turns to her boyfriend if she's dealt with disappointment on the court, saying,

“Honestly after a good match, I just talk to my boyfriend, my friends, everyone cause I’m in a good mood. When I lose, I would say just my boyfriend 'cause he is the only one that can take me and my mood after a loss. He’s always telling me to trust the process. Just know that I’ve already accomplished a lot and there’s no need to be so negative. That’s kind of what my whole team, my parents, everybody says. I’m someone that can criticize myself a lot, so I just try to make sure that I stay positive.”

On the tennis end of things, Coco Gauff was most recently seen in action at the US Open. The American made it to the round of 16, where she was knocked out by four-time Grand Slam champion Naomi Osaka.
