Coco Gauff recently voiced her discomfort about the repeated attention on a video she shared, demonstrating how she managed her outfit in the bathroom. The discussion arose during an interview following her victory over Canada’s Leylah Fernandez at the Australian Open, where Gauff appeared slightly uneasy about the topic.
A few days earlier, on Monday, January 13, the American tennis star had addressed her fans’ curiosity about her striking outfit by posting an Instagram story. In the video, she humorously demonstrated what she thought would be the difficulty of using the restroom while wearing the outfit, only to discover it was not as complicated as she initially assumed.
During the post-match interview, Gauff was complimented on her bright yellow New Balance ensemble, which had garnered significant attention for its stylish design. When asked about its comfort, the 20-year-old jokingly referred to her Instagram video. She explained how she had shown fans the challenges of managing the outfit in the bathroom. However, realizing she may have overshared, Gauff laughed nervously and quickly apologized to the audience for her candid remark.
Although the moment was lighthearted, Gauff appeared uncomfortable with how much focus the video had received. Her playful and relatable approach to addressing fans’ questions reflects her down-to-earth personality, but she has made it clear she prefers the focus to remain on her performance on the court rather than her off-court humor.
