Sabalenka's ungracious remark only made Coco's victory even sweeter. More titles or the #1 rank do not make a great champion. A great champion should always be gracious in both victory and in defeat. That is why Coco has the love of the French crowd and fans around the world and I believe she'll have more titles to win.
I am from Bologna, I opened the window to hear Sabalenka's screams, thank you Coco, for the style and grace.
What a refreshing change to hear this gracious young lady speak. ❤
The Williams sisters most certainly are happy today...having laid the groundwork for women like Coco to thrive
The right person won today 🎉 Congratulations Coco 👏🏽 Enjoy your win!!!
Miss Coco is gorgeous, intelligent, fast, athletic, and kind: the whole package. ☺😅🎉
The wind blows on both players and both players played under the same court and conditions… just be respectful and give credit to the winner, and better luck to you next time!!!.
Sabalenka was very disrespectful to Coco at her post-match presser. She kept implying the only reason Coco beat her was because she played the worst match of her career because of the conditions, and insinuated Iga Swiatek would have besten Coco today. The way she was talking, you’d forget that Sabalenka’s H2H against Coco going into this match was 5-5, Coco already beat her when they played in their previous Slam final match, and Coco has beaten Swiatek in straight sets the last 3 times they played, including on clay in Madrid. So there is literally ZERO facts to support most of what she said. Coco didn’t luck her way into winning this match because Sabalenka had an off day. Sabalenka was up 4-1, 40-0 in the first set and looked poised to run away with the match in the same terrible weather conditions in which Coco took that first set to a tiebreaker and then dug deep and played smart to win the next two sets. This is not a good look for Sabalenka. I’m sure she wanted to play better, but a person like Coco who always makes you hit “one more ball” is often THE REASON players can’t play the way they want to play.
Such a nice girl...very grounded and down to earth. We will see much more of her- well done, Coco!
Wow! What an intelligent interview! Articulate, grateful, humble, and reflective. Represent!!!
It was only a matter of time. She´s been in the finals of almost all tourneys lately. Congrats
No one can postpone the inevitable. This is your elevation, Miss Coco. Relish each and every moment.
Congratulations Coco🎉. You played intelligently and deserve your super win.
She is Spectacular at this Age 😂 and her Mental Game says A LOT. But what She Does Is she NEVER EVER Gives Up and that is a CHAMPION 💯 ❤❤❤
Sabalenka making excuses just describes who she is as a person Coco overcame the same conditions and kept her poker face such a well spoken lady too Coco Mania ❤️
I am so happy that Coco won. It was not just luck, Coco was really more focused, precise and more varied in her attacks, Coco played better and it was a well-deserved victory! In difficult conditions, the strongest always wins! I also really like her outfits on the court. She looks great in them! Congratulations girl, you will soon be number one!❤
Warmest Congrats from Jamaica, Coco🎉. You are a wonderful young lady and role model. Hope Wimbledon is next😊.
I can't wait for the day this fantastic woman takes over the number one position in the world ranking. Well done Coco! This was one of the most exciting tennis matches I have seen in a long long time!
From the UK we L ❤ O ❤ V ❤ E ❤ Coco Gauff.
