Riba left not long after Gauff won the US Open as well as has actually been actually coaching Olympic gold-medal champ Zheng Qinwen.


At the 2023 US Open, Gauff moved previous Aryna Sabalenka 2-6, 6-3, 6-2 to capture her maiden major prior to a rowdy crowd on Arthur Ashe Coliseum.
It was actually Gauff's 12th straight gain and came after she became the youngest woman to gain the Cincinnati Open. At age 19, Gauff became the youngest American to gain the United States Open considering that her ping pong hero, a 17-year-old Serena Williams, defeated planet No. 1 Martina Hingis in the 1999 last. She also joined Serena Williams as well as Tracy Austin as the third American teen girl to capture the United States Open in the Open Period.
