“In this format, even if I lose, we have a chance”
Titled to WTA Finals, Coco Gauff is undefeated since an inaugural defeat in the masters tournament against Barbora Krejcikova and remains on nine victories in a row. So obviously, the young American begins to show herself ambitious. “I think I now have the belief that I am one of the best players in the world. I think I played good Tennis. I’m happy to win a point for the team.“The world number 3 also appreciated the atmosphere of the team competition in which she can count on Taylor Fritz to win most of his singles: “I realized that the worst thing that could happen to me today is that I lose. In this type of format, even if I lose, we still have a chance to win. I just told myself that I was going to give my best and I think that’s all the team can ask of me.“Freed from pressure, Coco Gauff will she be able to do the same at the Grand Slam?
