Coco Gauff and family
Here’s everything you need to know about American Tennis star Coco Gauff’s siblings and family
Coco Gauff came into the world on March 13, 2004, to Candi and Corey Gauff, both originally from Delray Beach, Florida. She has two younger brothers, Codey and Cameron Gauff. Corey Gauff, her father, initially played college basketball at Georgia State University before embarking on a career in healthcare administration.
On the other hand, Candi Gauff, her mother, was a former track and field athlete at Florida State University and worked as an educator. Coco Gauff spent her early years living in Atlanta.
Codey Gauff, the middle child of the Gauff family at the age of 14, might not have the same level of public recognition as his sister Coco, but he’s already making a mark with his sporting abilities. Although there isn’t a lot of information available about his interests and pastimes, Codey has been seen demonstrating his talent as a baseball pitcher, showing his enthusiasm for America’s beloved sport. It’s evident that the Gauff family has a strong sporting tradition, and Codey is certainly part of that legacy.
Cameron Gauff is the youngest member of the Gauff clan. However, his age is no barrier to his determination to follow in his sister Coco’s footsteps and become a professional athlete in his own right. One notable moment of sibling collaboration was when Cameron assisted his sister in designing a pair of sneakers for Coco Gauff’s shoe line. This creative endeavor not only demonstrates Cameron’s artistic side but also highlights the strong bond he shares with his sister.
Coco Gauff frequently discusses the significant impact her brothers have had on her emerging career. Being the eldest among them, she has taken on the role of being a role model and mentor to both Codey and Cameron.
This responsibility has undeniably played a part in shaping her maturity and the mental strength she exhibits on the tennis court. While addressing the media before her participation in the Qatar Open, Coco reflected on her role within her family, stating, “I’m the oldest of three siblings, and perhaps that has contributed to it. I’m not sure, but I do feel like I’ve had to learn and grow quickly.”
The Gauff family embodies a wonderful blend of competitiveness and mutual support. While Coco shines as a tennis superstar, her brothers Codey and Cameron are making their marks in various sports and creative endeavors, showcasing the family’s diverse talents and shared encouragement.
