Is Coco Gauff good because she's young and can make those shots or is she just that good??

I think her agility on the course is because she’s young, or is she really just that good? Saw she has the most powerful serve MPH wise, and Serena is #2 so far this week.

I wish more players still competed in both singles and doubles. It helps them construct points better and improves shot selection.

She was really new when I saw her last, she is very impressive. I hope she goes all the way. Maybe I will have to start watching again!! The occasional match is not good enough.

Except, I did not like that slasher move (slash the throat move) in the second set. 😢 just did not like that. Did anyone see it?? Or did I just imagine it??
