Coco Gauff Wins The French Open

Coco Gauff has landed the second Grand Slam title of her career after a thrilling victory over Aryna Sabalenka in Saturday’s French Open final. The 21-year-old American sensation conquered Roland Garros for the very first time after coming from behind to defeat the top-ranked Sabalenka 6-7 (5), 6-2, 6-4.

And as well as becoming French Open champion, Gauff has picked up some huge prize money in the process. The win on Saturday saw her claim a staggering $2.9million, while Sabalenka collected $1.4m as a consolation after her gut-wrenching defeat. Just three months on from her 21st birthday, Gauff has now raked in close to $30m over the course of her tennis career.

Celebrity Net Worth estimated the US tennis star, who was listed by Forbes as the highest-paid female athlete in 2024, was worth $35m before Saturday’s French Open final.
