Coco Gauff is possibly playing one of the biggest matches of her career as she takes on Karolina Muchova in the Wimbledon semifinals on July 9.
All eyes are on Coco to see if she can become the first woman since Serena Williams to lift the title at SW19.
Coco Gauff has worked with multiple coaches in her short career, with the most prominent being Brad Gilbert. Gauff ended her collaboration with Gilbert in 2024 after managing to clinch the US Open title under his tutelage in 2023.
After Gilbert, Gauff hired Matt Daly, but that collaboration also didn't yield the desired results. They eventually parted ways in late 2025.
Just before the start of last year's US Open, the American hired biomechanics expert Gavin MacMillan, who helped Aryna Sabalenka overcome her serve issues in 2022, to join her team.

Coco Gauff's Coaching Team
Since then, MacMillan has been a part of Gauff's team. Also sitting in her players' box is her coach since 2019, Jean-Christophe Faurel, a constant presence in Gauff's team. He leads the technical strategy, while MacMillan helps her with her serve mechanics.
Besides these two, Gauff's mother, Candi, has been a huge presence, cheering and supporting her daughter through multiple triumphs and heartbreaks.
Gauff's strength and conditioning coach, Richard Woodroof, can also be seen in the box. Finally, there is Johan Tatlot, Gauff's hitting partner.
Interestingly, the American's father, Corey, has decided to give Wimbledon a miss this year. He stayed back in America to help Coco's brother, Codey, settle in as he plays college baseball for the Missouri Tigers.
Even when Corey attended multiple Grand Slams in the past, he was never seen in Gauff's box. Watching his daughter play makes Corey anxious, and that's the reason he has completely banned himself from sitting in her box. Instead, he can often be seen in the hallways, rooting for his daughter.
