Gauff Leaves Federer’s Management Agency to Start Her Own
In an Instagram post, Coco Gauff announced she is leaving Federer’s management agency, Team 8, to launch her own.
This departure is a significant loss for Team 8, as Gauff is the highest-paid female athlete in 2024, largely due to her off-court earnings.
The American’s new agency will be called **"Coco Gauff Enterprises."** She will be represented by WME (William Morris Endeavor), an agency that works with actors, artists, and athletes, among others.
Gauff expressed excitement about this new chapter: *"From the moment I first picked up a tennis racket, I’ve always believed my purpose extends far beyond the court.*
*I’m thrilled to announce the launch of Coco Gauff Enterprises, a company that reflects my passion for making an impact—not just in tennis, but in business, philanthropy, and beyond.*
*I’m excited to build something that will allow me to take greater control of my career while creating opportunities that go beyond my own limits as I grow as an athlete, entrepreneur, and changemaker.*
*Coco Gauff Enterprises will be represented and supported by WME, a team with the vision and resources to help me explore every opportunity ahead."*
