“I am glad that people take notice to it"- Coco Gauff reacts to being crowned the fashion icon
Coco Gauff recently reacted to a clip lauding her for being a fashion icon from the recently concluded US Open.
In an interview with Tennis Channel during the 2023 US Open, a reporter informed Gauff that she’s being considered a fashion icon on Twitter.
“I don’t know if you are aware of this as well, but on Twitter at least you’re kind of considered like a sort of a fashion icon.”, the interviewer said.
To this, the 19-year-old tennis star had an amusing yet grounded reply.
“I am glad that people kinda take notice to it. So, I guess I am on tennis fashion Twitter. I don’t know,” she said.
Gauff recently took to her Instagram story to reshare this short clip of the interview from a month back with a funny caption.
“LOL,” she captioned her story.
Gauff clinched her maiden Grand Slam at the 2023 US Open by defeating Aryna Sabalenka 2-6, 6-3, 6-2 in the final. She also became the very first American teenager to claim a Grand Slam singles title this century.
However, the World No. 3 is winning it both on and off the court, following in the footsteps of her role models, Serena and Venus Williams.
Gauff made a gorgeous statement as she attended the WTA Gala, gracing the event in a golden satin dress by Cult Gaia. The Twitter fashion icon also has a long-lived relationship with New Balance since she was 14 years old, further establishing her name in the glam world.
