Coco Gauff Was 'Really in a Dark Place' After 2023 Wimbledon Loss


Tennis superstar Coco Gauff admitted to being ‘really in a dark place’ after losing in the first round of Wimbledon in 2023, saying she felt ‘the weight of everything’ for weeks

Gauff, the defending U.S. Open champion who won her first Grand Slam doubles’ title in June, has preached the importance of keeping her off-the-court life private. A year removed from her first-round Wimbledon exit, Gauff further explained how a recent off-the-court encounter with a young fan allowed her to feel more clear-headed when she’s competing. It’s a busy summer season for Gauff — she’ll head to Paris to represent the United States in her Olympic debut directly after Wimbledon — but she’s managing to take it all in stride.
