Coco Gauff Is the 2025 French Open Women's Singles Champion
On Saturday, June 7, Coco Gauff took home her second Grand Slam title, winning the 2025 French Open against world No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka with a final score of 6(5)-7(7), 6-2, 6-4 at Roland Garros. Gauff also won the U.S. Open in 2023. It was an emotional moment for the tennis champion, who celebrated on the court before running to her mother and father, Candi and Corey Gauff, who were watching in the audience. After receiving her trophy, Gauff was interviewed by Sloane Stephens, where she praised her family for keeping 'her grounded.' 'You guys keep me grounded and give me the belief,' she said. 'Thanks, and I love you guys. To my brothers at home, you are the reason I do this, and you inspire me more than you know.' She continued, 'Thanks to everyone who made this tournament happen, and thanks to you guys! You really helped me today, you were cheering for me so hard. I'm not sure what I do to deserve so much love from the French crowd but merci beaucoup.' Gauff finished out her speech with a reference to rapper Tyler the Creator. 'Honestly, I didn't think I could do it, but I'm going to quote Tyler the Creator right here and he said 'If I ever told you I had a doubt inside me, I must be lying,'' she said. 'I was lying to myself, so thanks to Tyler, and thanks to you guys.' In October 2024, Tyler actually threw in a reference to Gauff on his album CHROMAKOPIA in the track 'Thought I Was Dead' with ScHoolboy Q and Santigold, saying in the lyrics, 'You ain't Coco Gauff, you can't serve me.' Gauff reacted to the song at the time on TikTok, saying, 'Biased opinion: it's fire. Unbiased opinion: it's fire. Anyways, don't take my word for it, go listen for yourself.'
