NEW YORK: There was a shake-up in the Coco Gauff box earlier in the summer, with her father Corey stepping back from coaching his daughter. Former ATP pro Pere Riba is the head coach, and the astute Brad Gilbert has been hired as consultant.
Corey, who played basketball for Georgia State, is still a presence at his daughter's practice sessions, but when she plays, he's taking rounds of the grounds, working off his nervous energy.
