Kids often admire well-known celebrities, putting posters of their favorite musicians, movie stars and athletes

on their bedroom walls. But rarely does a young person get to meet or talk to their idol. Yet for one young tennis

player - Coco Gauff - her chance to do just that happened in an amazing way!

Coco was born on March 13, 2004. At the age of 4, she developed an interest in tennis after watching Venus

Williams win the Australian Open on TV. Coco began playing at 7 and showed a real talent for the sport. When

young Coco turned 10, she began training at a tennis centre run by Venus's coach, Patrick Mouratoglou. He still

remembers the first time he met Coco. He says, “She impressed me with her determination and fighting spirit. ”

Convinced of her talent, Mouratoglou sponsored(资助)Coco to attend his academy in France. While she was

preparing to go to the academy in 2019, she received a call that would change her plans and her life!

Wimbledon(温布尔顿网球比赛)organizers called and offered Gauff entry to the tournament(联赛)as a

wildcard(外卡选手).This madeher one of the youngest players to ever qualify. Before she knew it she was on her

way to London. After arriving, she received another surprise. For her Wimbledon debut(首次登场),she would be

playing her lifelong hero, Venus Williams! The tennis legend is 24years older than Gauff.

The world watched with amazement as young Gauff beat Venus in two straight sets! Afterwards, Gauff shook

Venus's hand, thanked her and said, “I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for you. " After the match, Venus said of Gauff,

“I think the sky is the limit;it really is. " Venus said, “I feel honored that I was on her wall [as a poster] at some

point in her life. Soon she will be on other girls' walls. It's nice because it will keep going from the next generation

to the next generation. "
