Although Gauff has never played against Williams’ sister, she has always respected her and admired the former world No. 1. Recently, she appeared on the cover of Vogue magazine and was interviewed by the magazine, saying that she had never met her idol face to face. Coco Gough said, “Playing against Serena at Wimbledon, I don’t know, I felt like it would mess up my story. “I wasn’t ready for Serena at the time. “
Furthermore, she went on to add, “If I had a perfect world, I would play both. But Serena retired and I played Venus twice. In my perfect world, I would play Venus once and Serena once. Raina once.”
