Coco Gauff calls for change to one tennis rule that ‘doesn’t make any sense’

Coco Gauff, the 2023 US Open champion, has been speaking out about a tennis rule she believes 'doesn't make any sense,' arguing that changes should be made to help casual viewers better understand the sport. She made the comments ahead of a WTA 1000 final on May 15, 2026, where she faces Elina Svitolina in a bid for her first WTA 1000 title of the 2026 season. The tournament is the same event where Gauff was runner-up last season, losing to Jasmine Paolini.
