During a press conference, Gauff shared a humorous anecdote about her French language skills, or rather, lack thereof. She revealed that she's been working with a French coach since she was 15, yet her French remains limited. "I worked with him when I was 15 as well, and I'm 21 and I still don't know French that well," Gauff admitted with a laugh. She playfully shifted the blame, adding, "But maybe next year I can say some words in French. And if not, don't get mad at me, blame JC because he's from Paris, so he should teach me some things, you know." The video clip of this moment, released by Roland-Garros' official account, quickly gained traction online. Gauff's candidness and self-deprecating humor resonated with fans, highlighting the relatable struggle of learning a new language. The video serves as a lighthearted reminder that even professional athletes face everyday challenges.
