Coco Gauff Biography Flash a weekly Biography.

Coco Gauff has been all over the headlines lately as she gears up to defend her title at the 2025 China Open in Beijing starting today. She’s seeded second and will begin play in the second round, facing off against either Lucia Bronzetti or Kamilla Rakhimova, both competitive challengers but Gauff has the historical edge over Bronzetti, having won all three prior meetings, including their latest clash at the Cincinnati Open. After losing to Naomi Osaka in the fourth round of the US Open in early September—a rough 3-6, 2-6 defeat—Gauff took time off to recalibrate her game and her mindset, training mostly in Florida. She’s treating this post-US Open stretch as a preseason for 2026, revealing candidly to Tennis365 that landing the French Open title this June has instantly lightened the pressure she felt last year. She’s still partnered with biomechanics expert Gavin MacMillan after parting ways with coach Matt Daly, though MacMillan isn’t in Beijing due to scheduling conflicts; Gauff plans to resume work with him immediately after the China swing, aiming to fine-tune her service motion and cut down on double faults.

On the personal front, Gauff is drawing the spotlight not just for her tennis but also for her social media game. She recently posted what she dubbed her “lost summer files: sunset chaser edition” on Instagram—a photodump featuring sunsets, Florida adventures, and plenty of stylish moments. Her boyfriend Jalen Sera, an Atlanta-based musician and actor, chimed in with the sweet “Sunset soldier!!!” comment, reflecting their two-year romance, which she confirmed in June this year. Family ties keep Gauff grounded: her mother Candi’s vacation in St. Lucia drew public praise and proud reposts from Coco, while her younger brother Codey just celebrated his 18th birthday with plenty of congratulatory and loving messages on social media from the entire Gauff clan. Codey is set to play college baseball at the University of Missouri next year. These moments echo the heartfelt gratitude Gauff expressed after her French Open win, crediting her family for unwavering support and inspiration.

Major publications like Sportskeeda and Pro Football Network have highlighted Gauff’s off-court warmth and her readiness to approach Beijing with a “practice tournament” mindset—hoping to use the tournament as a springboard for an even bigger run in 2026. No major controversies or speculation have surfaced, but if anything breaks in the next few hours, you’ll hear it here first.
