In an emotionally charged interview following Coco Gauff’s breathtaking triumph at the French Open, her mother, Candi Gauff, opened up about the family’s long and often painful journey to the top of the tennis world.

Fighting back tears, Candi revealed the behind-the-scenes struggles Coco endured to silence critics and prove herself on one of the sport’s biggest stages.

“The mocking, the insults, the harsh criticism — we chose silence and let the court speak for us,” Candi said, her voice trembling. “People called her overrated. They said she was just hype. But we didn’t fight back with words — we fought back with dedication, faith, and hard work.”

Coco Gauff, just 21 years old, claimed her first French Open title last weekend in an emotional final that saw her overcome not only a formidable opponent but years of pressure and public scrutiny.

The victory, hailed as one of the most inspiring in recent tennis history, was hard-won through discipline and inner strength.

But what moved fans even more than the victory was the deeply personal revelation Candi made — a secret Coco kept even from most of her own team.

 

“Every morning during training season, Coco would quietly wake up at 3 a.m.,” Candi shared. “Not to train, not to stretch, but to pray. She would kneel alone in her room, asking God for strength, for guidance, and for grace — not just to win, but to stay grounded.”

According to her mother, this private act of devotion began during Coco’s early teenage years, as she faced relentless media pressure and online criticism following her breakout performance at Wimbledon in 2019. As her fame skyrocketed, so did the expectations — and so did the doubters.

“She learned very early that greatness comes at a price,” Candi said. “Instead of reacting in anger, she found her power in silence and her focus in faith. That 3 a.m. prayer became her anchor.”

Coco’s own reaction to the story was humble and heartfelt.

“I never wanted anyone to know,” Coco said during a press conference. “That was my time to reset, to block out the noise, and remember why I started this journey. Tennis is just the stage. Faith is what keeps me standing on it.”

As Coco Gauff lifts her first French Open trophy — a shining symbol of perseverance — her mother’s emotional words have cast new light on the heart and soul behind the rising champion.

Her story is not just one of athletic glory, but of quiet resilience, unseen sacrifice, and a belief that speaking softly and working hard can still move mountains.

“She may be strong on the court,” Candi concluded, “but her greatest strength has always been invisible — in her heart.”

Fans across the world have responded with overwhelming support, flooding social media with tributes to Coco’s character, grace, and now-revealed 3 a.m. ritual.

In a sport often dominated by flashy headlines and rivalries, Coco Gauff’s story is a timely reminder that sometimes, the quietest voices leave the loudest echoes.
