Rick Macci Proposes Key Adjustment for Coco Gauff to Overcome Aryna Sabalenka
Tennis coach Rick Macci has advised Coco Gauff to make a key strategic adjustment to overcome Aryna Sabalenka: positioning herself closer to the baseline for returns, especially against Sabalenka’s wide serves. Gauff’s return game struggled in their recent Miami Open final, winning only 31% of return points, and her serve remains a concern with over five double faults per match this season. Despite these areas for improvement, Gauff holds a competitive head-to-head record against Sabalenka and heads into the clay season with boosted confidence.
