Coco Gauff on her win % on clay: “Obviously, 73% - it’s not quite like Rafa Nadal – what is he at? 90%? Or 90-something percent at French Open. But you know, I’ll take my 70. Hopefully, I can get up there one day.”
"I’ll take my 70%": Gauff on win percentage on clay compared to Rafael Nadal
WTASunday, 30 April 2023 at 00:00
Coco Gauff has been truly impressive on clay in recent years and she hopes to get closer to Rafael Nadal's win percentage on the surface which stands at 90 %.
Nadal has been the best clay player of all time. Nobody dominated on the surface as much as Nadal ever in history and that likely won't ever change in the future. Coco Gauff has shown a lot of promise on the surface playing her only grand slam final on it. It came last year at Roland Garros with Swiatek proving quite better.
She was asked about her percentage on the surface which is 73 % and she is proud of it. She also wants to get up to Nadal's numbers in the future if she can:
“Obviously, 73% - it’s not quite like Rafa Nadal – what is he at? 90%? Or 90-something percent at French Open. But you know, I’ll take my 70. Hopefully, I can get up there one day.”

- Must be okay to do this because WTA apparently could care less. They seem to be even more distant since the Saudi's filled their personal bank accounts. This particular smashing was extreme... and in front of so many little children who (unfortunately in some cases) look up to these players.
mandoist02-05-2024 - Unfortunately the WTA & ITF Fat-Cats are comfortable lounging in their elite surroundings and do not hear anything they do not wish to hear. Not to mention how any compassion, concerns, or sensibility toward the general overall health of players likely went away with their filthy Saudi pocket money.mandoist02-05-2024
