Coco Gauff has donated the outfit and shoes from her victorious run at the US Open last month to the International Tennis Hall of Fame's museum display.
The 19-year-old soared to her maiden Grand Slam victory at Flushing Meadows, defeating Mirra Andreeva, Caroline Wozniacki, Jelena Ostapenko, and Karolina Muchova on her way to a clash with Aryna Sabalenka in the final.
She then fought back from a set down to defeat the World No. 1 2-6, 6-3, 6-2. As a result, she lifted the prestigious trophy on home soil, rose to No. 3 in the WTA Ranking, and earned $3 million in prize money.
Gauff's iconic outfit to go on display through end of 2023
The American player revealed her outfit and shoes for the US Open in a stunning photoshoot in August. The kit was from her new sponsor New Balance and consisted of a red T-shirt and skirt, complete with her personalized New Balance CG1 "City Brights" shoes.
On Thursday, October 19, the International Tennis Hall of Fame revealed that the outfit and shoes would be on display in their museum through to the end of the year.
"Some noteworthy additions. @CocoGauff's iconic @newbalance shoes and outfit from her @usopen win are now in Newport! The gear is on display at the International Hall of Fame for fans to view in the museum through the end of the year," they wrote on X.
Since the US Open, Gauff has competed at the WTA 1000 China Open in Beijing. She made it past the likes of Veronika Kudermetova and Maria Sakkari, building up a 16-match-winning streak, before losing to Iga Swiatek in the semi-finals.
The World No. 3 has also qualified for the WTA Finals in Cancun, Mexico, which will take place from October 29 - November 5. She will compete in both singles and doubles (along with World No. 4 Jessica Pegula) at the season-ending championships.
