American tennis star Coco Gauff won her second major title at the French Open, which she had wanted for a long time. Gauff beat top-ranked Aryna Sabalenka, getting inspiration from Olympic champion Gabby Thomas's method of writing down positive affirmations. Gauff adopted this approach, writing many times before the final match that she would be the French Open champion. Even though she was not expected to win, Gauff stayed calm and focused during the match, while Sabalenka had trouble controlling her emotions. Gauff has found it helpful to express her feelings before games, which helps her stay calm during matches. After her win, Gauff plans to play in the grass-court season and might play in a tournament in Berlin before going to Wimbledon.
