Cori Gauff easily secured her spot in the third round of Roland Garros 2026, and during her press conference, she discussed various topics, highlighting the impressive level of Moise Kouame, a player she was able to talk to after her epic victory.

"People don't realize how absolutely incredible what he did today was. Playing your first five-set match, in front of a French crowd, going up two sets, losing that lead, and still fighting on... most players crumble in such a situation. I think this guy is going to be a huge talent. I don't know him very personally, but I was fully supporting him. After the match, I told him, 'Brother, I wish this had been best of three because I've been here much longer than I expected'."
