Many figures from the circuit have yet to speak out, and Coco Gauff is not one to stay silent. The American player admitted to not having informed herself much about the PTPA's lawsuit against the racket sports organizations, but she is clear on the improvements she would make almost immediately to enhance this sport. This is how Coco herself explains it from the Miami Open 2025.

About her bagel against Sofia Kenin

"Personally, I know where I'm at with my game. Lately, it hasn't been up to par, but we are in March and our season ends in November. There is plenty of time to improve. Today, I didn't go in with that idea in mind. It has just been a great day for me," Coco Gauff explained in a press conference.

Gauff's opinion on the PTPA lawsuit

"Honestly, I don't have much information on that whole matter. I saw a post about it. I found out at the same time as the rest of the world. I don't have any information on it to share, but I am in favor of improving the sport and trying to make it better. I don't know the details, to be completely honest. I saw it on Instagram two days ago and didn't delve into it."

What would you improve in tennis?

"For me, the most important thing would not be equity, but rather a better share of the revenues and prize money. Also, in the case of women, matching the prize money to that of men. There are many other things, like visibility and the like, that I believe we can also improve.

I can't sit here and complain either. I am a professional athlete. I am paid very well to do what I love. The amount of work is definitely less than the prize, or the amount of work is not equal to the reward, obviously. I am an athlete. There are people who do much harder things in this world. If we want to compare it to other sports, of course, but if you want to compare it to other things in life, I'm not going to sit here and complain."
