Gauff: "To me, it only makes sense to play my unique style of game"

Coco Gauff spoke at a press conference after reaching the third round of the Australian Open 2026 and addressed a very interesting issue, the diversity of playing styles in women's tennis. The American is known for putting more spin and height on her shots, constructing points with more patience than other players who clearly aim for winning shots. Her reflection is clear.

"I know I need to continue being aggressive. There was a time when I thought I should be much more offensive, hit flatter, and constantly seek winners, but that's not the style I feel comfortable with. I want to dictate on the court, but by using spin, playing high balls, with variations. I believe that style of play makes more sense than that of many other players, and I just need to control not being too passive," she stated.
