After a painful defeat in the round of 16 at the US Open 2024, and after taking some time off, Coco Gauff has returned to the courts in the best possible way: by winning a title. This season has not been easy for the recent champion of the WTA Beijing 2024, currently ranked number 4 in the world, who started the year strongly but couldn't find her best tennis throughout the months. It seems that the American is already breaking that pattern with this trophy, showing that she can overcome great opponents along the way.

Her decision to play in Beijing and part of the season

"I told my team that I wanted to play in Beijing. We were planning to go to Wuhan, but I just felt like I needed to play, I needed to have fun. The tournaments where I really wanted to do well, the Slams, were over. I always think that this part of the season will always be more relaxed for me," confesses Coco to the official page of the WTA.

Her tennis progress

"The result confirms to me that we are heading in the right direction. Many times people forget that I am still in the career development phase and that not everything will be great. Most people doing well are 25 years or older in the Top 10, maybe with the exception of Iga. We have a long way to go, and I still have many things to work on, but I am proud of myself so far," says the American. "I didn't have a complete game at 15 and I don't have it now, but I have been on the circuit playing almost every week, trying to get better. I am super proud of it."
