The split implies both coaches who led Gauff to the 2023 United States Open championship-- Gilbert as well as Pere Riba-- are no longer dealing with the Delray Beach-born baseliner. Riba left quickly after Gauff succeeded the United States Open and has been actually training Olympic gold-medal champion Zheng Qinwen.
At the 2023 US Open, Gauff moved past Aryna Sabalenka 2-6, 6-3, 6-2 to grab her first significant prior to a raucous crowd on Arthur Ashe Arena.
It was actually Gauff's 12th straight win as well as followed she became the youngest female to succeed the Cincinnati Open. At age 19, Gauff ended up being the youngest American to succeed the US Open due to the fact that her ping pong hero, a 17-year-old Serena Williams, defeated globe No. 1 Martina Hingis in the 1999 last. She also participated in Serena Williams as well as Tracy Austin as the 3rd United States teen female to grab the United States Open outdoors Era.
