- Gauff dedicated her award to the monumental figures in her life, naming tennis players Venus and Serena Williams, former First Lady Michelle Obama, and her grandmother, who she says was the first Black woman to integrate the Delray Beach school system in Florida, as inspirations.
“Last December, I was given the honor of being the Grand Marshal of the Delray Beach holiday parade. Riding through the parade, it hit me that 63 years ago, my grandmother had to fight for girls like me to even have a fair education,” Gauff, 19, said, in reference to the racial integration of U.S. public schools that took place in the 60s. “Now, generations later, I’m able to make my own impact on that same city, but only because of what she accomplished.”
Gauff ended her speech by encouraging women to dream big, reflecting on her win last year.
“Our impact is strongest when we work together. Thank you for inspiring me. Thank you for believing in me and thank you for showing me that the sky’s the limit.”

"Epitome" - is pronounced "eh-PIT-uh-me..." but what can I say, whether she knew how to read the word or not, her nerves alone must've been a lot to handle. Coco Gauff has gone to incredible places and achieved amazing things at such a young age, and I'm sure she will accomplish many more! Praying for her success, joy, and sanity in & out of the limelight!

I see these strong, intelligent women totally emasculated you so badly that I hid behind a black man’s photo to insult them, what a shame.
