When not serving aces, Coco Gauff dreams of shooting hoops with Caitlin Clark.

America’s tennis star Coco Gauff has stated that if she gets another life, she would like to become a basketball player and guard young sensation, Caitlin Clark. The 22-year-old is regarded as the next big thing in basketball and sports lovers are already waiting to see her shine the WNBA next season. Gauff was recently quoted in a report where she revealed her father’s wish to see her become a basketball player, something she would want to try if she would get another life.

"It's funny because my dad was actually talking about that," said Gauff. "He was, like, 'You would have been right up there. You would have been a sophomore. I would have had you shooting Js and everything.' Yeah, I don't know if I would be that type of player, but I will say if I could go in another life I would love to play at the same time as Caitlin Clark just to see if I could guard her. Obviously, now I definitely couldn't, but I don't know, if I trained for it, [I] just [want] to see."

Gauff further went on to state that it is an exciting time for women’s basketball. "It's very exciting to see the women's game especially in basketball getting as much traction now," Gauff said. "They definitely deserve it. I've been Instagram mutuals with some of the girls. Cameron Brink just signed with New Balance. And Angel Reese, had some DMs with her, and same with Caitlin and Paige Bueckers."
