Coco Gauff and Taylor Fritz both rank how they feel about their own games out of 10 going into the Australian Open

Ahead of the 2025 Australian Open, both Coco Gauff and Taylor Fritz shared their thoughts on how they feel about their own games, each ranking their current form out of 10.

Coco Gauff, coming off a stellar performance at the United Cup, where she defeated top-ranked Iga Świątek, expressed high confidence in her game. Gauff rated herself an 8 out of 10, acknowledging that while she feels strong in her game, especially with her aggressive baseline play and improved mental composure, she believes there’s always room for growth. Gauff emphasized her desire to maintain this form heading into the Australian Open, where she aims to make a deep run. She mentioned areas like consistency and shot selection as places she’s still refining but is optimistic about her overall preparation.

Taylor Fritz, who has had a solid start to the season and is consistently in the conversation among the top-ranked American men, also gave himself an 8 out of 10. Fritz noted that he feels in good form physically and has been working on his serve and forehand, two key weapons in his game. He explained that his off-season preparation has helped him feel fit and ready for the intense battles ahead in Melbourne. However, like Gauff, Fritz mentioned that there are always adjustments to be made, especially when it comes to maintaining focus in critical moments against top-tier opponents.

Both Gauff and Fritz head into the Australian Open with strong momentum, and their self-assessments reflect a balance of confidence and humility, knowing they have the potential to go far in the first Grand Slam of the year. Fans will be eager to see how their high rankings translate on the court in Melbourne.
