Coco Gauff opens old family album for Corey Gauff's birthday and writes an emotional message about her journey (Image Via Google) Coco Gauff took a pause from her busy tennis schedule to share a very personal message for her father, Corey Gauff, on his birthday. On Monday, August 18, 2025, the 21-year-old American posted two unseen photos on her Instagram story showing herself as a child standing beside her father on a tennis court and later relaxing at a beach in Florida. Along with the photos, Coco Gauff wrote a brief but clear note calling Corey Gauff her "dream fueler" and expressing thanks to her father for consistently supporting her in her tennis career. For her fans, this was a particularly unique post because the two-time Grand Slam champion rarely posts family memories. Coco Gauff praises Corey Gauff with touching words and sweet throwback pictures Coco Gauff posted the first picture early in the morning on Monday and wrote, 'Happy birthday to the best to ever do it, the man with a plan, and my dream fueler. I love you dad @coreygauff.' The second Instagram story showed the father-daughter duo at a beach and read, 'From the courts straight to the beach, lol the real & best Florida tennis dad.' These words gave a small look into their close bond. In a recent interview with The National, Coco Gauff said that her father never forced her to play tennis and that the dream was always her own. She added, 'He was always asking, 'How can I help her accomplish her dreams?'' The American tennis star also shared that Corey Gauff would have supported any decision she made, even if it was outside of tennis. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like AirSense 11 – Smart tech for deep sleep ResMed Buy Now Undo Also Read: Khamzat Chimaev Breaks Silence On His In Fight Message To Dricus Du Plessis At UFC 319 And It Could Change How The Fight Is Viewed Corey Gauff's support continues as Coco Gauff prepares for her next challenge In a brief period, Corey Gauff definitely helped Coco Gauff have a spectacular run in the WTA rankings.

Netflix has a China problem, and it is called "China's Netflix"
Netflix may be staring at a huge problem, and it is China. Chinese streaming giants are reportedly quickly gaining ground on their American rivals in the booming Southeast Asian market. According to a report in Nikkei Asia, companies like iQiyi and Tencent are making major plays, shifting their focus to producing original content tailored for local audiences. Referred to as " China's Netflix ," iQiyi, a subsidiary of Baidu, has been expanding across Southeast Asia since 2019, with a strong presence in Thailand, Indonesia, and Malaysia. The company has attracted 36 million monthly subscribers in the region by offering a mix of free ad-supported viewing and affordable subscription fees. In Thailand, iQiyi's library features over 9,000 titles, with more than 60% being Chinese productions. iQiyi hosts a plethora of content from Chinese period dramas to blockbuster Hollywood films. Moving forward, iQiyi is investing heavily in local content, says the report. The company plans to spend up to 1.54 million dollars ($1.54 million) per production and release four to six Thai titles annually, specifically targeting popular genres like "boys' love" and "girls' love" dramas. In Indonesia and Malaysia, iQiyi is partnering with local studios and carriers like Telkomsel to produce original content for the carrier's 170 million subscribers. iQiyi vies with Tencent Holdings and Alibaba Group Holding Ltd to rank among the biggest video-streaming platforms in China, with an estimated 400 million-plus monthly active users. Tencent's approach: WeTV and original productions Tencent launched its WeTV service in Southeast Asia in 2019 and is also prioritizing original content. Since 2024, the company has been producing local idol programs, which has led to the formation of successful groups like the seven-member boy band NexT1de. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like The 5 Books Warren Buffett Recommends You To Read in 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo iQiyi to open theme park Earlier this year, iQiyi said that it plans to open its first theme park this year, based on characters from its own shows. The forthcoming 'iQiyi Land' is set to open in the city of Yangzhou in Jiangsu province, just over two hours from Shanghai by high-speed train. iQiyi's market share and regional dominance While U.S. services like Netflix and Amazon Prime Video entered the region around 2016 and hold a dominant share in some areas—nearly 60% in Singapore—Chinese companies are rapidly closing the gap. In Thailand, Chinese providers command about 40% of the market, surpassing the roughly 30% held by U.S. services. This is partly attributed to the large ethnic Chinese population in Southeast Asia and the popularity of Chinese content. The fierce competition in the domestic Chinese market is also a driving factor for this expansion. With domestic revenue and profits falling, Southeast Asia's young population and rising incomes present a significant growth opportunity. The region's streaming market is projected to reach 6.8 billion dollars by 2030, a 49% increase from 2024. AI Masterclass for Students. Upskill Young Ones Today!– Join Now
