Gauff Wimbledon 2021
Known for his superhuman flexibility, Novak Djokovic might have some competition in that department as American teenager Coco Gauff displayed some pliability herself during her first round match at the Wimbledon Championships.
While attempting to chase down a ball, Gauff was stretched to the point where she was almost performing a split on the court. Even more impressive was the fact that she kept the ball in play, and positioned herself for her opponent's next shot. This was similar to the pose illustrated by World No.1 Novak Djokovic last year, an image that has since become an internet meme.
Gauff later tweeted out an image of her in the same position, stating that she did in fact retrieve the ball. Djokovic was quick to jump in on the fun, responding to the tweet and stating that he liked the American's moves, along with an emoji of a spider. This led to Gauff initially responding by saying she learned from the best, before she tweeted out another image that depicted her side-by-side with the Serbian, with both players performing the infamous "Spiderman" pose.
