The Paris Olympics will be major for Gauff. It will be her first chance to compete at the Games after being forced to withdraw from Tokyo three years ago due to qa positive test for Covid-19. An additional boost to the excitement is the fact the 20-year-old was selected as the female flag-bearer for Team USA.
The world No.2 has three chances at reaching the podium in Paris, as she's competing in women's singles, women's doubles, and mixed doubles. The competition is held at Roland Garros, a clay court where she has had success.
"One of the goals I wrote down on my vision thing, vision note, in my phone, was to win a medal in the Olympics,” Gauff said. "I'll be completely honest; I don't really care what event it is in. I feel like gold, silver, or bronze, whatever medal it is, is one of those things; it doesn't matter.
"Well, it does matter. Obviously, I want to win in singles. I feel like I would appreciate it just as much, whether it was in singles or doubles. It's not the same to me as a Slam."
