Gauff, 21, said she was proud to bring positivity during a period where ‘a lot is going on in our country right now’

Coco Gauff said she is "still in shock" after completing a three-set comeback against world No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka to win her first French Open title.

Coco Gauff came to Paris chasing a lifelong dream, and now the 21-year-old American has carved her place in history. A teary-eyed Gauff held off world No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka 6-7, 6-2, 6-4 at the French Open Final in one of her finest career performances to capture her second Grand Slam in memorable fashion.
