Maria Sharapova Shares Advice for Coco Gauff After Firing Her Tennis Coach (Exclusive)


Maria Sharapova exclusively shared with ‘Us Weekly’ her advice for tennis star Coco Gauff, who has parted ways with coach Brad Gilbert

“I think Coco has an amazing head on her shoulders and knows that there will be changes in her team throughout the years,” Sharapova, 37, exclusively told Us Weekly at the Stella Artois ‘Let’s do Dinner Summer Series’ event in New York City on Thursday, September 19. However, during the 2024 season, the young tennis star experienced setbacks after losing to fellow American Emma Navarro in the last two Grand Slams and then failed to medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics. In 2008, after winning her third Grand Slam in Australia, the Russian tennis star asked her coach and father, Yuri Sharapov, to step back from the role he had fulfilled for almost her entire career.
