Hold on to your tennis rackets, folks—because Coco Gauff just lobbed a bombshell straight into the gossip court! During a candid podcast interview this week, the 20-year-old Grand Slam champ opened up about something fans have long speculated about but never got confirmation on: her love life. And let’s just say—she didn’t exactly play it safe.
In between stories about match-day routines and locker room playlists, Coco casually mentioned that she’s “been learning how to balance dating and tennis.” Wait—what?! Yes, you read that right. Dating. No names were dropped (classic Coco), but that one word was all it took to send her fans into full investigation mode.
And the internet wasn’t the only one caught off guard—her parents were, too. According to sources close to the family, both Corey and Candi Gauff were “supportive but surprised.” Apparently, even super-involved tennis parents don’t catch everything! Coco later joked, “They probably know now, since the whole world does.” Oops.
Naturally, everyone wants to know: Who’s the lucky one? Fellow athlete? College cutie? A secret celeb romance? For now, Gauff’s keeping things close to the chest, but her cheeky grin said more than words ever could.
One thing’s clear: while Coco’s backhand might break records, it’s her quiet confidence—and mystery—off the court that’s truly undefeated. Fans are loving this new glimpse into her grown-up world… and we’ll absolutely be keeping score.
