In the post-Serena Williams era of competitive tennis, no American female tennis player has arguably captivated audiences more than Coco Gauff.
With the 44-year-old Williams potentially making a stunning comeback to the sport next month, Gauff would like to be one of the first to welcome her back to the spotlight. Gauff, who’s currently trying to defend her French Open title, got candid about seeing the G.O.A.T. pick up her racket again for what would be her first professional match since 2022. Amid ongoing speculation about her playing future, Williams has been seen training this year and could reportedly return to the court at the Queen’s Club tournament in London with doubles partner Victoria Mboko.
