America’s rising star in tennis Coco Gauff’s love for rapper Megan Thee Stallion knows no limit. From revealing her music as the WTA star’s favorite go-to background score for TikTok reels to including the American rapper in a completely different genre, Gauff has showcased her admiration for the singer at its best. Speaking about the upcoming Miami Grand Prix, Gauff recalls her rap icon bringing much-needed laughter among her fans.
The official X (formerly Twitter) page of the Miami Open shared a clip of the tennis players, where they were spotted talking about Formula 1. The interviewer asked players to name their teams if they could enter into Formula 1 with that. In response, the ATP and WTA stars took fans on a joyful laughter ride. Among all the responses, the reigning US Open champion as usual stole the limelight with her quirky and funny response. Gauff mentioned that she would like to call her team “The Baddies” if she ever gets to create one and enter into Formula 1 for the upcoming Miami Grand Prix. In the American tennis star’s words- “If I enter a team, what would I call it? Probably, like, hmm, the Baddies!”

Gauff not only surprised her fans with her imaginary F1 team name but also doubled the excitement by revealing her favorite driver. Gauff said- “I don’t know why but Megan Sally is the first person come to mind.” This reigning US Open champion’s love for the famous Formula 1 driver was previously spotted. Last year in an interview with nickiswift.com, Gauff revealed that she really enjoys this famous rapper’s music. This source mentioned that-“Gauff shared that the song “Good Days” by SZA was heavy on her rotation, and when it came to making TikToks, any Megan Thee Stallion bop does the trick.
Gauff’s fans know well that this WTA star has a knack for rap music. She was spotted donning an exclusive “Megan Knee” while playing with her doubles partner Jessica Pegula. It was at last year’s Australian Open tournament since they withdrew their participation as a doubles team this year. For others not introduced to the word, it is a social media word to represent the strong knees. This reference comes from Megan Thee Stallion’s famous dance poses where she twerks and bounces depending on her bended knees. Nevertheless, Gauff’s incredible shot at that match reminded her colleagues of the famous rapper following amazing compliments.
