Gauff talks about the post-match conversation she had, “Venus told me congratulations and keep going, she said good luck and I told her thanks for everything she did. I wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for her – I told her she was so inspiring and I’ve always wanted to tell her that but I’ve never had the guts to before.”

After winning, Gauff was seen crying.

“Honestly, I don’t really know how to feel. This was definitely the first time I ever cried after winning a match. I don’t even know how to explain how I feel. I had to tell myself to stay calm, I’d never played on a court so big. I had to remind myself that the lines are the same size.”

To stay calm, Gauff has a playlist of Jaden, Kendrick Lamar and Miss Mulatto songs that she listens to before stepping on the court.
