"Thank you to the people who didn't believe in me"

Coco Gauff won her first-ever Grand Slam on Saturday, and she made sure to call out those who had doubted her.

Gauff lost the first set against Aryna Sabalenka before taking the second and third sets to claim a 2-6, 6-3, 6-2 victory in the U.S. Open final.

After she shared some emotional moments with her parents and coaches in the stands, Gauff reflected on her win during his post-match interview.

The 19-year-old had been stunned after losing to unranked American Sofia Kenin in the first round at Wimbledon earlier in the summer, the first time she had ever been eliminated from a Grand Slam that early in her young professional career.
