Profile & career

From academy prospect to Grand Slam champion.

Coco Gauff first worked with the Mouratoglou team as a 10-year-old. She has since become one of the best players in the world, a two-time Grand Slam champion (US Open 2023, Roland-Garros 2025) and the winner of the 2024 WTA Finals.

She has also won two WTA 1000 titles, Cincinnati in 2023 and Beijing in 2024. Ranked world No. 2 in singles at her best, she is just as strong in doubles: world No. 1 in 2022, she won Roland-Garros in 2024 with Kateřina Siniaková.

At 15 she became the youngest winner of a WTA tournament (Linz 2019) since Nicole Vaidišová in 2004. The same year she became the youngest player ever to qualify for the Wimbledon main draw, beating Venus Williams in the first round before losing to Simona Halep in the last 16.

Did you know?Her real name is Cori, but everyone calls her Coco. “Call me Coco” even became a T-shirt made by her sponsor.

Except in 2020, when the tour was stopped for most of the year, she has won at least one title every season. After a first Grand Slam final at Roland-Garros in 2022, lost to Iga Świątek, she won the 2023 US Open at home against Aryna Sabalenka, carried the US flag at the Paris 2024 Olympics alongside LeBron James, won the 2024 WTA Finals against Qinwen Zheng, then took her revenge on the Paris clay by winning Roland-Garros in 2025.

MOURATOGLOU ACADEMY

Her link with the Mouratoglou Academy.

Coco Gauff was spotted by Patrick Mouratoglou and his team at the age of 10. She then joined the Champ'Seed programme, a foundation that helps talented young players without the financial means to reach the top level.

She has trained at the Mouratoglou Academy at every stage of her development, and every year she prepares for Roland-Garros on the academy's clay courts. During the 2023 clay season, when she needed to rebuild her confidence before changing her coaching team, Patrick Mouratoglou followed her personally.

GAME & EQUIPMENT

How Coco plays.

Her game

A superb athlete, Coco Gauff is an outstanding defender who forces even the biggest hitters to play one shot too many: that is how she turned the 2023 US Open final against Aryna Sabalenka. Her best shot is the backhand, with which she can attack, defend, wear her opponent down and finish the point. She also volleys better than most players on the women's tour and has won on every surface: hard courts, grass, clay and indoors.

Her equipment

Coco Gauff plays with a Head Boom MP racket.
