Over the past month, Gauff played at the China Open and exited in the semi-final stage after experiencing a shoulder injury. Before that, she built a 16-match winning streak that was the best for any woman so far in the tennis season. Before that, she won the US Open, becoming the youngest player since Serena Williams to achieve this.
Gauff’s time in China
Over the course of the China Open, Coco Gauff looked like she was having a great time, immersing herself in the local culture. Gauff was received at the Beijing Captial International Airport with some flowers. “It’s been a huge summer for me and I’m excited to build on my US Open win and put in a really big finish to what’s been an amazing year,” she said of the competition. “We always love playing in front of the Chinese fans so I’m really looking forward to that.”
She participated in various cultural activities, like a tea tasting, and learning how to write some words in Chinese caligraphy.
