American teenage sensation Coco Gauff has had the best season of her career on the WTA circuit this year, and the 18-year old continues to add accolades to what could be a distinguished career.
Gauff, who recently reached a WTA Ranking career-high of World No.8, moved a spot higher to No.7 following her quarterfinal run at last week's San Diego Open.
The Atlanta, GA native has been in great form this season, reaching her maiden Grand Slam final at the 2022 French Open. Furthermore, she had strong showings in San Jose and Toronto, which led to her reaching the quarterfinals of the US Open for the first time. Gauff became the youngest American woman to achieve this feat since Melanie Oudin in 2009, and subsequently broke into the Top 10, ranking World No.8 before reaching her current high of World No.7.
This new achievement ensured she achieved her goal of qualifying for the year-ending WTA Finals, which will be held in Fort Worth, Texas and run from October 31-November 7, 2022.
