Gauff is coming off of an intense season yet one that was ultimately successful for her, where she closed out the year with three trophies and a record of 54-17.
“There’s been a lot of ups and downs," she said in an interview with The Associated Press. "At moments, it felt great. At other moments, it felt awful. Basically, a typical year on tour."
She shared some photos of her WTA Finals win on Instagram, referencing the Tyler the Creator song "Thought I Was Dead," which features the lyrics, "You ain't Coco Gauff" and was released recently.
"Tyler tried to tell ya’ll," she wrote. "In all seriousness, I’m so grateful for all the support the last few weeks. Getting to win the last tournament of the season and it also being my second biggest title of my career so far is insane."
Her WTA Finals win makes her the youngest champion in the tournament since Sharapova won it in 2004, back when she was a teenager.
