Singles record
WTA singles · ranking as of July 13, 2026How Gauff plays
Coco Gauff takes the ball early on the backhand side and drives it crosscourt before stepping in. Opponents who serve into her body or push her deep behind the baseline can stop her from dictating the point. Her two-handed backhand is the shot to neutralise first, because once she finds rhythm there, the forehand opens up. Right-handed, she covers the court well and turns defence into attack.
She holds WTA No. 4 as of July 13, 2026, with a career-high of No. 2. Twelve tour-level singles titles sit alongside her two Grand Slam wins, at the US Open in 2023 and the French Open in 2025. Pere Riba is her coach.
