Gauff, Youngest Player to Win Roland-Garros and the US Open Since Serena Williams
Coco Gauff claimed the second Grand Slam title of her young career by winning the Roland-Garros final against Aryna Sabalenka (6-7, 6-2, 6-4).
The world No. 2, aged just 21, has become the first American player to triumph on the Parisian clay since Serena Williams in 2015.
And now, with both the US Open and Roland-Garros in her trophy cabinet, Gauff stands as the youngest player to win these two tournaments since, once again, Serena Williams in 2002.
Proof that, despite already several years on the WTA tour, Gauff still has many seasons ahead to further build her legacy.
