While Codey is committed to pursuing a baseball career, Cameron is honing his skills in both football and tennis.Codey, who represented the San Diego Padres scout team during the 2024 16U NC Champs, has been included in the lineup for the Minority Baseball Prospects All-American game. The game is expected to attract 80 scouts who will observe the best prospects from the class of 2026.
Coco Gauff’s mother Candi celebrated Codey’s inclusion in the lineup on social media, expressing her love for the 17-year-old.
“@codeygauff ❤️❤️,” she posted on her Instagram story.
In an interview with USA Baseball in June this year, their father Corey opened up about his children’s athletic interests, disclosing that while Coco Gauff decided to pursue tennis at a young age, Codey turned to baseball later after trying his hand at football and tennis.
He also highlighted the similarities between the siblings, emphasizing that they both possessed a strong work ethic and had developed unique skill sets in their respective sports.
“Coco chose what she wanted to do very early on. Codey played football for a little bit and some basketball, kind of arriving at baseball a little bit later in life than Coco did with tennis, but they both worked really hard growing up. They both have unique skill sets in their respective sports. It’s been great to watch them grow,” he said.
