Coco Gauff Biography Flash a weekly Biography. Coco Gauff is off to a dominant start in 2026, defending her United Cup title in Perth, Australia while making headlines both on and off the court. The world number three tennis star kicked off the new year in style, sharing a radiant New Year's post on Instagram that caught the attention of fellow players including Paula Badosa and Tommy Paul's girlfriend Paige Lorenze. In the post, Gauff reflected on her impressive 2025 season, writing "A lot of dreams fulfilled, a lot of love shared, and a lot of gratitude." That year saw her claim her maiden Roland Garros title alongside victories at the United Cup and Wuhan Open, though she fell short in her bid for the WTA Finals crown. Now Gauff is making good on her momentum. On January 3rd, she delivered a dominant performance against Argentina's Solana Sierra in Group A play at the United Cup, winning 6-1, 6-1 in a match that lasted just 30 minutes in the first set. Tennis.com and ATP Tour coverage shows that Gauff sprinted to a 5-0 lead early on, limiting Sierra to just seven points on her serve. After that victory, Gauff showed her versatility by partnering with Christian Harrison in mixed doubles, securing a decisive 6-4, 6-1 win against Maria Lourdes Carle and Guido Andreozzi to seal a 2-1 overall victory for Team USA over Argentina. Away from competition, Gauff made a candid statement about American fan support abroad. According to reporting from Marca, when asked about feeling support from U.S. fans in Australia, she delivered a blunt assessment, saying "I'll be honest, no" and adding that American tennis fans are "definitely the worst when it comes to that" in terms of supporting players internationally. The comment was echoed by her doubles partner Taylor Fritz, who noted that team events favor the United States despite fan attendance challenges. The defending United Cup champion remains in peak form heading into the Australian Open, with analysts noting that Gauff said she can play "even better" than she did against Argentina. As the Americans prepare to face Spain next, Gauff continues her quest to repeat as United Cup champion while positioning herself strongly for the year's first Grand Slam.
