Raising a champion #1, Corey and Candi Gauff 

"I never had a father like me" - the role of both parents is crucial. It is particularly good for the child when the father leads well, and parents are in a loving consistent, respectful, agreeable, stable relationship with each other. This is not just for child prodigies, but for all children everywhere to fulfill their best God-given potential

Coco's parents are completely committed to their roles. It is beautiful to see. It is easy to see where Coco gets her grace and poise

And now she's a grand slam champion. Call me Coco Champion! Wishing you many many more grand slams Coco.

Hard Work Pays off! US OPEN Champion Coco Gauff! Family support is so crucial to everything a person strives to do. Well done parents.

Coco and her brothers are blessed with amazing parents.Congratulations Coco. Well deserved.

I've watched Coco for a while and she's very lucky to have such extremely RARE parents. Most parents 'guide' their kids as to what the kids want to do--as long as it doesn't cost $$. But the Gauff's went way over that border.

Great job, parents and grandparents! It definitely takes a village.

Congratulations on winning the US Open 2023!!! It was amazing to see you kneel down and pray right there on the court! ✝️🙏🏾

Coco has clearly been raised by amazing parents. She recently won her first title on clay and has demonstrated that she is a formidable clay court player and will win RG one day for sure!

Absolutely amazing girl with AMAZING parents. The Gauffs are an amazing family.

Congrats on bringing up a great kid. This is how you raise a child, set goals, discipline and have fun.

This has aged very well ... and I’m here for it. 2 titles and #25 in the world. Great to see the village coming together to make this happen. Go Coco 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Another BLACK-family excellence. Congrats to Coco,family and team. Thousands more rising stars to be born out there if only they have the opportunity. Many blessings on this great achievement at this young age Coco👑

NOW SHE'S A GRAND SLAM CHAMPION!!

This investment is paying now big dividends! Coco Gauff is the new US Open Women’s Champion and World’s # 3 ranked player! Bravo Coco!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲

Love how they are just common people loving their daughter

Turns out that mom gave great advice! I’m just so proud of all of you, and I absolutely love Coco ❤. Grand slam champion! Let’s 😅Go!

Well here we are, Roland Garros 2021, this can be her first GS! We believe in you Coco! 🎾👑💚

All I can say, I want to raisey children this way: objectives, progress, values and family-minded. Wow!

Coco Gauff.. don't listen to haters and racists saying you are overated. Keep your eyes 👀👁️ on the goal Love 💕. That grandslam title is coming some day: #believe

Interesting, it show all the sacrifices and dedication it takes to be a champion

A wonderful mother and father! Beautiful family!!!! ALL BLACK HOMES AREN"T DYSFUNCTIONAL! I love how the father and mother backed away and let people who knew more than them - guide their daughter!

I love,love this. Corey and Candi Gauff I salute you both for making the ultimate sacrifice to make sure your daughter REACHED her highest potential. You placed a high risk bet and it paid off. Love to you both✊🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

I love her mom so much! Great example of a strong and devoted mother to her children and a completely submitted wife to her husband! What a woman!!

Now she’s a US open champion

Now she's started to blossom

Coco's mother is so pretty and her father is a handsome man.They have beautiful children. The family is just wonderful. I'm so glad they have realized their dreams for their daughter.

Great story & parents! Very supportive family!

Such amazing family. Hat's off to your parents, for believing in Dream, faith and wisdom to guide by example. Love that's unmeasurable.🎉

Dear couple I bless your child to grow more in the years to come God bless her

They seem like amazing, loving parents. Which may explain why Coco is not only accomplished, but seems like a VERY well balanced young lady. (and now ranked 30 in the world). Congratulations to the Gauff family.

God bless you Dad and Mom, she just won the US open

Gauffs are phenomenonal all of them. 🖤✊🏾

They have done an amazing job to the point that if Coco actually wins The 2021 French Open I won’t be overly surprised.

Congratulations Coco and parents ❤

Phew!!! The burden of expectations on that kid! As much as I appreciate and relate to the sacrifices her parents have done, I can feel the emotional pressure on Coco to become successful. I hope Coco goes on to achieve great things, but overall hope she grows to be a respected athlete and a great human being.

CONGRATS To COCO! You are a role model to many kids ESPECIALLY black and brown boys and girls!! I am PROUD to call you, Family & Friend! 😊 Yes, parents ya'll have done a GREAT JOB, not just raising a CHAMPION, but an ELEGANT YOUNG LADY!

So damn inspiring to hear such stories !

Merci à la famille Williams et la famille Gauf. Vous êtes une immense source d'inspiration nous vous suivons depuis le Cameroun en Afrique centrale.

A basketball playing father and gymnast mother, her genes were built for athletics 👏🏽

I am so proud of the parents. I understand some of it as our daughter was a golfer

Beautiful parents inside and out! Just a beautiful family all around!

and now here CoCo stands as the US Open champion in 2023!

I believe it is high time that men finally recover their humanity in order to put an end to this stupidity that is racism which is ruining people's lives, preventing us from uniting and living in pure fraternity without caricature. and without hypocrisy...For a moment look at how beautiful this image is that we offer to the whole world. After the Williams sisters, Naomi, today it's Coco's turn. She deserves this trophy, she fought against everything to achieve it...Congratulations Coco. Long live unity, fraternity, equity among all, Abolish racism for a better humanity!!!!

Coco is a reflection of you guys. I'm such a fan of her and you guys as parents to her. I praise your disciplinary ways. All that you put into her Tennis career as coach and parents is every other child's dream. May GOD continue to bless Coco in the coming years! #Linz💪💯 #Parma!💪💯 #SuperParents!💪💯

Proud of her for having the tenacity, and mental fortitude to achieve her goals despite adversity. Praying she keeps on playing remarkably 🖤🗽

Doing a great job!! Do everything God gives you that you believe is good for your daughter. We as parents knows what is best for our children. I am so happy for your decision.

THANK YOU(!) I ENJOYED THAT! THERE'S NOTHING MORE WONDERFUL THAN SEEING PARENTS HELP THEIR CHILDREN FULLFIL THEIR GOALS. ALONG WITH BEING A GREAT ATHLETE, SHE'S bA GREAT HUMAN BEING! YEAH! AND THAT REFLEXS YOU!

Coco making us proud......she has just started. She will be great and great.

met coco and her dad cory at the OJ Junior championships while they were unloading their suv .... really nice people ...I shouldve made a video because after that it was lights camera action.

Very smart, very loving parents who make sacrifices for their family. A great thing to see.

Success will never come without sacrifice, parents that see potential in their children and sacrifice to do whatever needed to be done to help her develop into who she is and diligent sacrifice to get to where she is. It would have been easier for mom to stay teaching and the father to stay at a job that was very lucrative but parenting is the most rewarding job. If parents would return to speaking life into your children, let them know that if you can envision it, you can achieve it. There is not enough to be said but parents take notes. You want crimes to cease, then start building your children, stop handing them the end process and start handing them the struggles that it takes to be whatever you dare to be. You have to be before you can become…To Coco’s parents, job well done and the sky is the limit for her, then when she becomes a parent, children teach your children and so on….

I LOVE her folks...and that conversation that her Mom had with her, as it relates to "if all else fails, keep running...keep swinging...keep digging", is the stuff that champions are made . keep it very simple and NEVER, EVER give up. Thats what I got from her Mom. Her Dad, is "the rock"...you can tell.

Am very thrilled for your victory I am from Birmingham Alabama my grandmother would say you are a credit to your race.

Coco is an amazing tennis player. I love Serena too. God bless America and them. Coco is delicate and strong tennis player. Congratulations 👏

I’m so impressed with how many people are influenced by the Williams family. And how to discern what your kid’s talent is, and bring out the best in them! But, I can’t imagine the ups and downs. Now it’s beginning to pay off!

What a wonderful family!!! So nice to see!!

Thank you to the parents out there who are willing to make sacrifices for their children's dreams to come true. My parents did it for me too. Coco will never forget what you have done for her and her brothers. Be blessed.

Such a BEAUTIFUL FOUNDATIONAL BLACK AMERICAN FAMILY!

Where there is Unity the LORD Commands the Blessings !

Wow coco parents are adorable great job for encouraging the next serena williams no other one but your daughter coco

COCO,'S PARENTS ,AND FAMILY ARE A GOD'S BLESSED WINNING TEAM 🙏🙏🙏...LITTLE ANGEL COCO ON THE COURT IS FIREWORKS💥💫💥💫.SHE IS AWESOME , COCO WILL WIN MANY GRAND SLAMS AMEN🙏🙏🙏....

Just a very special conversation about your very talented daughter. Sacrifice,yes everything in life takes effort to perfect. The two of your are examples of parents doing the work of keeping the family whole and together as a Unit. Love the calmness of both of you in the interview and the love and respect you provided of your family. Love has everything to do with it! I have not missed Coco on the Tennis Channel. And Yes, she is a Grand Slammed Champion many times - I affirm as if it already happen. Ashe

CONGRATULATIONS, Coco… most of all, Congratulations Parents and Grandparents!!! 👑

Two and half years later: French Open singles and doubles finalist. I think she will take Roland Garros and US Open in in 2023.

Congratulations on raising such an amazing talent . It takes a village ❤

Lovely family. Coco seems like a daddy's girl (which is beautiful!), but her mom is so cool and supportive, bringing that balance. Pretty outstanding to also have supportive, involved grandparents. She's surrounded by love.

I hope she appreciates the sacrifices her parents made in order for her to be an accomplished tennis player. The tennis world used to think Richard Williams was crazy but he was crazy smart in teaching his daughters a sport that they could make a lot of money. Aside grom the Gauffs look at almof the white teenagers that now have their dads as a coach,

Super Congratulations... Few tweaks is all you needed this year. Lots to enjoy and still so much to learn. Made for this!

Commitment, discipline, and dedication. She just won her second WTA singles title and she won doubles the first teenager since 2004(Sharapova) to win singles and doubles at the same tournament.

Congratulations on Coco's win🗽🏆 Great player indeed. And I like how humble she is

The victory was worth the sacrifice.

awesome player! great job parents! i wish my parents could have supported my athletic opportunities but they were busy providing for the family.

Now I realize who is the locomotive in the life of Coco…It’s her mom..Although the Dad and Grandma also are very important figures, the locomotive that pulls the train, is the Mom…Today, 9.September.2023 is the day where Coco has got her 1 th Grand Slam Trophy at US Open…They made it! Congrats 👍👏😀

Congratulations to Coco on winning her recent USOPEN TENNIS, mum and Dads love and perseverance has paid off. Well done Mum and Dad you have trained a winner and I can see her going onto bigger and better things under your guidance. Be blessed.

Congratulations Coco. 🎊 🎉❤

You are right when you say that you are Coco Gauf. You don't have to be anyone else. You have it all girl.Go for it.❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉

Go Coco!!!!

Coco is so so so lucky to have such parents. I remember wanting to be a pro tennis player when i was 17 after high school 😂😂😂. We see the glamour but we don't see the hardships the parents went through and a champion doesn't appear overnight. The sacrifices made by the parents...we see so many cases; qinwen, naomi osaka, serena williams. It's not a burden NORMAL parents are prepared to shoulder. I believe it's usually the father who has this vision of seeing a champion but it requires the mothet to provide full support. Corey is an exceptional visionary and i really hope Coco will, unlike NO, always be grateful to her visionary parents and provide them with a good lifestyle. She is a good girl. She has already bought a luxurious bungalow for her family.❤

The thing about life is it changes things. We get set in how things supposed to go and bam Venus & Serena! Turn the Tennis game upside down. So when God/Source gives you a desire just follow it, the rest is not for you to know anyway just show up ready within with beliefs in yourself and courage to go beyond the normal boundaries. There no better idea then for humanity, then for a idea or person who time has come. Lets give them something to talk about COCO ONE STEP AT A TIME! We got you on the otherside🧚🏾‍♀️

I am very proud of you as parents and as a couple. You have to be on one accord. When giving so much up for your child, you can lose yourself. Play Together, Pray Together, Stay Together.

Love & dedication 👏👏👏

Great parents ,good kid, a champion upcoming

Congradulations to Co Co & her mom & dad!😊

I pray Coco can double GREAT things in Tennis 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

There I am thinking coco’s parents are so calm and just down to earth. I was shocked to see he had a Liverpool football club shirt on 😢😢😢😢😢. Really! We need to get him an Arsenal one😂😂
