Teenage tennis sensation Coco Gauff has never been one to shy away from big dreams and aspirations. In interviews leading up to the championships at Wimbledon, she expressed her belief that she is on the right track to achieving Grand Slam glory in the near future. The 2022 French Open finalist spoke about the potential of winning a major title.

About winning a Grand Slam title in the near future, Gauff said, “That would be the greatest thing. I don’t know how my career will pan out but I do think I’m giving myself the best opportunity and the best chance with the day-by-day work that I’m doing and that’s all I can control.”

In spite of recent struggles with form, the American is positive about winning a Slam in the near future. “Obviously when I get on the court, I will try my best but I definitely feel like I’m on the pathway to getting one soon,” she said.

Gauff burst onto the tennis scene in 2019 at the tender age of 15, when she made a remarkable run at Wimbledon. In a stunning display of talent and composure, she defeated the legendary Venus Williams on her way to the fourth round. Since her breakthrough at Wimbledon, Gauff has continued to make strides in her career. Over the years, she has steadily been climbing the rankings.

The American however, has seen a dip in form for most of the 2023 season so far. She has had 5 early-round exits in 6 tournaments starting from the Miami Open this year. Suffice it to say that Gauff has had an underwhelming season so far.

At the ongoing Rothesay Championships at Eastbourne, however, the American teen has seen some decent form. She dispatched doubles partner and fellow American Jessica Pegula in straight sets in the quarterfinals. This victory propelled her into the semi-finals, where she will face another compatriot, Madison Keys. The run at Eastbourne so far has instilled a sense of confidence in her, and she now believes that she can do well at the upcoming Wimbledon.

With her sights set on the Wimbledon draw, she is eager to demonstrate her capabilities and make a lasting impression at the All-England Club. Could the upcoming Wimbledon be the tournament where she finally wins a maiden Slam? Stay tuned and check the latest updates at Firstsportz to find out.
