Viv and Matt are joined by Corey Gauff, father of world No.3 Coco, who's through to the quarterfinals of Australian Open 2025. But you won’t see Corey in Gauff's courtside entourage; in 2023 he decided it was more helpful to watch her matches unfold in a room off court – one of many insights gleaned in a fascinating interview with a man who has an incredible perspective on raising and guiding a child phenom who burst to superstardom as a teenager. Corey Gauff, a former collegiate footballer, saw an athletic career for his daughter, but also recognised the importance of education, life balance, and, most of all, having fun on the tennis court. He recounts Coco's tennis journey, and his role within it, in this candid conversation.
