Coco Gauff, the 2024 WTA Tour Finals champion, has often spoken about the incredible pride she feels for her family, particularly her younger brother, Cameron Gauff. While Coco’s achievements on the tennis court have earned her a well-deserved spot among the world’s top players, it’s clear that her brother Cameron is no less impressive. An athlete with an undeniable talent for both football and tennis, Cameron has already made a name for himself in sports, and yet his skills extend far beyond the field. His musical talent and creativity, combined with his leadership and intelligence, position him as a true prodigy—someone who has the potential to shine in various fields.
Coco Gauff, who has often been seen as a doting sister, is more than happy to showcase her brother’s diverse talents on social media. She takes every opportunity to share his milestones with her followers, constantly emphasizing how much pride she takes in his achievements. It’s clear that Cameron, the youngest of the Gauff siblings, is someone who draws inspiration from those around him, as his successes continue to make waves in both his personal and professional life.
One of the most recent instances where Coco shared her brother’s talent came via her Instagram story. Coco posted a reel of Cameron playing the trombone, and the caption read: “My little brother learned the trombone part of ‘Sticky’ by Tyler, the Creator, on his euphonium!” This post was a testament to Cameron’s dedication and musical aptitude, and Coco’s pride was evident in every word she wrote. The fact that her younger brother is not only talented in sports but also able to excel in music shows the Gauff family’s natural gift for nurturing creativity in all its forms.
Cameron’s journey as an athlete has also been one of success, although it hasn’t been without challenges. Just last week, Cameron and his Delray Rocks 10U football team fell short in their quest for a championship, losing in the young athletes’ Superbowl. However, even in defeat, Cameron showed a level of maturity beyond his years. In an interview after the loss, when asked about his feelings, Cameron showed exceptional poise for an eleven-year-old. He stated, “It wasn’t the result I was expecting, but we’re going to have to live with that at the end of it.” Despite the disappointment, Cameron displayed a sense of responsibility and leadership, telling the interviewer that he would “just try hard and play as a family” moving forward.
Coco, of course, couldn’t help but express her admiration for her brother’s resilience and perspective. On her Instagram story, she posted a clip of Cameron’s interview, writing: “Aw, my little brother! I’m so proud of him and everyone on that team. Y’all get them next time! Three seasons in a row undefeated and only one loss in four seasons. So impressive! Only up from here.” Coco’s pride for her brother’s efforts and his entire team was clear, and her words of encouragement reflected her belief that Cameron’s potential is limitless, no matter what obstacles may come his way.
But Cameron’s talents don’t stop at sports and music. His creative instincts extend to the world of design, where he’s already making waves. Last year, Coco shared a touching story about Cameron’s growing talent for art. She revealed that she had placed one of his drawings on the door of her room, a gesture of appreciation for the artistic skills he’s been developing. For Christmas, she even gifted him art supplies to help foster his creativity. It was clear from Coco’s words that she not only admires her brother’s artistic abilities but also actively supports his interests in every way she can.
One of Cameron’s most impressive achievements to date came through his partnership with Coco’s sponsor, New Balance. After recognizing his potential as a designer, New Balance asked Cameron to help design a sneaker. The brand also provided him with a book titled How to Make a Sneaker, which further encouraged him to explore his creative side. Cameron responded with enthusiasm, sketching colorful designs that ultimately inspired New Balance to create the Coco CG1 Kids sneaker—a vibrant and playful design intended for younger audiences.
Coco couldn’t have been more thrilled for her brother. Reflecting on Cameron’s reaction to the opportunity, she said, “He was really excited. I think he kind of sensed it because they asked him to draw on this shoe and then on paper, so he’s young, but he kind of put two and two together.” Coco’s words not only highlight her pride in Cameron’s work but also demonstrate her admiration for his ability to grasp complex concepts at such a young age. His success with New Balance is just one example of how his creativity and work ethic are taking him to new heights.
The fact that Cameron is balancing sports, music, art, and design at such a young age is a testament to his versatility and determination. It’s clear that he’s not limiting himself to just one passion. Whether it’s on the football field, in the studio with his trombone, or at his drawing table, Cameron is someone who seems capable of excelling in anything he sets his mind to. His story is one of inspiration for other kids, especially those who may feel like they can’t pursue multiple interests. Cameron is living proof that with the right mindset and support, young people can thrive in a variety of fields.
Coco Gauff’s pride in her younger brother is contagious, and her unwavering support speaks to the close-knit nature of their family. She constantly celebrates his achievements, whether big or small, and encourages him to chase his dreams without fear of failure. Cameron’s journey has just begun, and if his past accomplishments are any indication, there’s no telling how far he’ll go. With a strong support system and an abundance of natural talent, the sky truly seems to be the limit for Cameron Gauff. As Coco often reminds her followers, there’s nothing but greatness ahead for her little brother.
