“Y’all gotta think first” – Coco Gauff firmly shuts down bizarre complaint about her custom Miu Miu outfit
Coco Gauff, world No. 2, fired back at a fan’s critique of her New Balance x Miu Miu outfit worn during her second-round loss to Wang Xinyu (6-3, 6-3) at the Berlin Tennis Open, per Sportskeeda. The fan, Blessing Oyeleye Adesiyan, commented on Gauff’s Instagram post, which showcased the white crop top and skirt with green and sky-blue accents, saying, “This outfit is a big NO. You kept adjusting it the whole time. They need to go back to the drawing board,” per Pro Football Network. Gauff responded, “I always adjust my skirts or headbands 😂 not because it doesn’t fit it’s just something to do with my hands to not crash out on court, redirecting my focus onto something else instead of negative thoughts. almost every outfit i’m always moving something around. y’all gotta think first 😭😂,” clarifying that her fidgeting is a focus technique, not a wardrobe issue, per EssentiallySports.
Gauff, who debuted the collaboration in Rome and plans a third look in Cincinnati, expressed disappointment at her early exit, noting, “I wish I could give this kit some more screen time as it’s definitely one of my favs,” per Yahoo Sports. Fans on X, like @MSports_all, praised her “powerful message,” per. Despite her 25 unforced errors in Berlin, Gauff remains optimistic for Wimbledon, starting June 30, where she aims for a second consecutive Grand Slam title, per WTA Tennis.
