I’m talking about Coco Gauff, Candi Gauff, I’m talking about it, I’m talking about it again, harsh words.

COCO GAUFF STANDS TALL: “I WON’T BE SILENT WHEN MY MOTHER IS INSULTED” — TENNIS WORLD RALLIES BEHIND AMERICAN STAR AFTER DISGUSTING CROWD INCIDENT
WUHAN, CHINA — What should have been another brilliant night of tennis turned into a shameful display of hate. During Coco Gauff’s match, several Chinese spectators hurled vulgar insults from behind the security fence, shouting:

She’s as ugly as her daughter! American tennis is a comedy!”

Their words weren’t aimed only at Coco, but also at her mother, Candi Gauff, who was sitting quietly in the players’ box. The abuse left the crowd divided — and the sports world furious.

A Line Crossed
For years, Coco Gauff has been known for her grace, maturity, and mental toughness. She has faced pressure on the biggest stages — from the U.S. Open to Wimbledon — but this time, something broke inside her. Hearing her mother’s name dragged through the mud was too much.

After the match, a visibly shaken Coco walked into the press room. Cameras were rolling. Reporters expected standard post-match answers — but instead, they witnessed a rare, raw moment of emotion.
