Coco Gauff, the No. 2 seed at Wimbledon, is utilizing her downtime by watching "The Bear" and reading books like Caleb Azumah Nelson’s “Small Worlds” and RuPaul’s newest memoir. She also enjoys hobbies like crochet and French lessons. Gauff recently breezed through a second-round match against Anca Todoni and is gearing up for a third-round showdown with Sonay Kartal. After struggling in tight matches last year, Gauff credits her improved performance this year to increased confidence and her aggressive playing style. With other top players like Aryna Sabalenka and Naomi Osaka falling, Gauff feels confident about her chances in the fairly open women’s draw at Wimbledon. Despite the fierce competition, Gauff is determined to make a deep run at the tournament and hopes to capitalize on the opportunity presented by the unpredictable field.
