Former player Rennae Stubbs suggested that
Coco Gauff needs to improve her forehand and serve for next season.
Coco Gauuf had a very poor showing at the WTA Finals going 0-6 both in singles and doubles leaving her visibly frustrated. Manny tennis analysts pointed out that Gauff looked unconfident in her forehand particularly with Tracy Austin explaining that she was actively avoiding it.
Stubbs shares a similar view about Gauff which she shared on social media platform Twitter. She wrote:
"Coco is a such a great kid, works her butt off & is a delight to be around & after some time off, I would suggest completely breaking down that forehand technique & serve. If she can get them under control and confident, shes going to be even tougher to play against!"
The service has been another issue for Gauff because she loses it quite often for a player of her level and she commits double faults often. Both of that needs to improve if she wants to where she wants to go.
Stubbs added:
"I am speaking from experience. My FH was my weaker side & as a player, u know ur own weaknesses & under pressure bad technique breaks down. But there are ways to get them stronger & more reliable under pressure. Practice makes perfect & the off season must be dedicated to that."
