Coco Gauff, the World No. 2 and 2025 French Open champion, has turned heads with her latest pre-Wimbledon nail art, showcasing a chic light pink polish on her Instagram stories, captioned “Wimpy nails,” as reported by *EssentiallySports* on June 27, 2025. The minimalist design, a departure from her 2024 Wimbledon strawberry-themed manicure featuring hand-painted strawberries and a lime green French tip, reflects a subtle yet confident style as she prepares for the Championships, starting June 30. Gauff’s nails, paired with her New Balance “White and Green Apple” CG2 and Coco Delray sneakers, align with Wimbledon’s iconic all-white dress code while adding a personal flair, per *SneakerNews.com*.[](https://www.essentiallysports.com/wta-tennis-news-coco-gauff-is-not-following-serena-williams-at-wimbledon-two-thousand-twenty-five-but-choosing-her-own-rules/)[](https://sneakernews.com/2025/06/03/coco-gauff-new-balance-wimbledon-tennis-collection/)
Gauff’s 2024 Wimbledon nails, described by *Hola.com* as a nod to the tournament’s strawberries and cream tradition, featured almond-shaped nails with a milky base and vibrant green accents, earning praise for blending elegance with playfulness. This year’s simpler pink polish, devoid of intricate designs, signals a focus on mental clarity, with Gauff noting a “shift in mindset” post-Roland Garros, prioritizing freedom and confidence, per *EssentiallySports*. Her fashion choices, including a Miu Miu x New Balance collaboration, highlight her growing influence as a style icon, drawing comparisons to Serena Williams’ bold Wimbledon looks, like her 2008 white trench coat, per *motociclismo.pt*.[](https://www.hola.com/us/beauty/20240701702698/coco-gauffs-adorable-and-stylish-wimbledon-manicure/)[](https://www.essentiallysports.com/wta-tennis-news-coco-gauff-is-not-following-serena-williams-at-wimbledon-two-thousand-twenty-five-but-choosing-her-own-rules/)
As Gauff faces a tough draw, potentially meeting Iga Swiatek in the quarterfinals, her nail reveal underscores her readiness to make a statement on and off the court, per *The Tennis Gazette*. Fans on X, like @MSports_all, lauded her “fashion revolution,” while @TennisFanUK noted her nails as a “subtle power move” for Wimbledon glory. With her game sharpened and style elevated, Gauff aims to surpass her previous Wimbledon best of the fourth round.
