Coco Gauff, deuxième mondiale et déjà demi-finaliste l'an dernier, est à nouveau dans le dernier carré de Roland-Garros. Face à Madison Keys, Gauff s'est imposée en trois sets (6-7 (6), 6-4, 6-1) après avoir eu du mal à entrer dans son quart (trois breaks sur ses trois premier jeux de service). Surtout, ce match 100% États-Unis s'est caractérisée par un déchet conséquent de part et d'autre. La rencontre s'est ainsi finie avec 101 fautes directes pour 40 coups gagnants en cumulé. Quoi qu'il en soit, la numéro 2 mondiale a assuré l'essentiel et affrontera Loïs Boisson en demies.

00:00BNP Paribas, partenaire des plus belles histoires de Roland Garros, aux côtés des ramasseurs de balles depuis plus de 50 ans.
00:30Au revoir.
03:16want you to win and want you to fail
03:18how do you cope with that as an athlete
03:20yeah I think there's
03:22two ways I've done it in the past
03:24either A just pretend they're cheering for you
03:27and B just
03:28using it and not letting
03:30that get to you
03:31I've been in crowds where they're
03:3499% for me so
03:36I don't have an issue with it
03:38and I hope everyone will be
03:40respectful and if not it's
03:42cool I think
03:43it makes sports exciting and I can't get
03:46irritated the fact that
03:48someone's rooting for their hometown
03:50hero because I would do the same
03:52so yeah I think it's just something
03:54that I will mentally prepare for if it were
03:56to happen and expect and be ready
03:58for
03:58well done you mentioned
04:02on the court that you just
04:04went up in tension
04:05was there anything did that solve
04:08everything or it could
04:10seem like there was more rockiness
04:12throughout and it was just like that
04:14kind of match where everybody was kind of up and
04:16down were there other things that you did
04:18was there a sort of plan B that you
04:20went to or anything else that you do
04:22in those situations where you're not
04:24feeling feeling your
04:26game or the ball like you would like to
04:28yeah I mean I wasn't feeling the ball
04:30obviously to start to match
04:32so I changed like tension
04:34just to see if it helped and
04:35maybe it did and maybe it didn't I mean I
04:38did go from 4-1 to 5-4 so I
04:40like to think that it helped a little bit sometimes
04:42the stuff could just be mental
04:44maybe you're thinking oh I changed my racket I'm going to play
04:46better and you start doing it I don't know
04:48but I was just trying
04:50to be aggressive and I had chances
04:52in the tiebreaker I don't like the way I played
04:54that tiebreaker I think you know although it was
04:56close I think I played two passives so
04:58you know usually
05:00if you're playing two passives in the
05:02end the more aggressive player is going to win
05:04so I knew in the
05:06second and the third that I had to
05:08try my best to be aggressive
05:10against Maddie is tough aggressive
05:12against Maddie looks different and aggressive
05:14against somebody else so
05:16yeah
05:17Coco did you watch
05:20Carlos Alcara's documentary on Netflix?
05:22No I haven't watched
05:24the documentary
05:27no
05:27but for sure you heard about his
05:29like philosophy that he likes to
05:31spend time with friends and parties
05:33in order to achieve his
05:35things
05:36how about you?
05:37do you feel like you also need
05:39that kind of normal life
05:41to achieve your goals?
05:43yeah definitely
05:44it's something that I'm trying to do
05:45more just because I feel like so much
05:47of my life I was so locked in
05:48and obviously it's great to be locked in
05:50but
05:51it was a little bit easier in juniors
05:53just because we would play a tournament
05:54and then you're home for three weeks
05:55and you go play another tournament
05:56home for another three weeks
05:58so
05:58obviously on tour it's
06:00quite the opposite
06:01so yeah it's something I do
06:03try to
06:04model
06:05him
06:06off of I've told him
06:08that I've tried to
06:09like have fun on the court
06:10like him
06:11and smile as much as he does
06:12and
06:12that is something that
06:14he inspires me
06:15to do that more
06:16and
06:16just enjoy the life
06:18in general
06:18I find you play better
06:19so yeah for sure
06:20I think he has
06:21a great philosophy
06:22and it's something that I am
06:23trying to model
06:24I don't think I'll be
06:25out there smiling
06:26as much as Carlos does
06:27sometimes when he loses
06:28wins a match
06:29but
06:29every now and then
06:31to try to crack some
06:31and I'm usually a more serious person
06:33on the court
06:34but I try to remember
06:35that it's just a game
06:36and try to treat it like that
06:38hey Coco
06:40hi
06:40when I was in Madrid
06:42you told us that your
06:43your strength in this tournament
06:45was your service
06:46yeah
06:46and right now
06:47you seem to be
06:49struggling a little bit
06:50with it
06:50can you explain it
06:52yeah I think in the
06:53first set
06:54I think
06:54well in that tiebreaker
06:56honestly was just a little bit
06:57of nerves
06:57and knowing that
06:58I had to try to hit a good serve
07:00because she was crushing
07:01my second serve return
07:02and then after that
07:03I felt that I served
07:04a lot better
07:05in the second
07:07and third set
07:08obviously
07:09so I was just trying
07:10to go for it more
07:11and honestly
07:12just try to kick it
07:13as much as possible
07:14and try to get it
07:15out the court
07:16because she was running around
07:18and crushing
07:18forehand returns
07:20so yeah
07:20it's something that I
07:21will always have to work on
07:23but
07:23I'm glad I didn't let
07:25what happened in tiebreaker
07:26and you know
07:27earlier in the match
07:28affect the next two sets
07:29congrats
07:31in sports
07:34you obviously
07:34have to have
07:35great skill sets
07:36but
07:37fighting spirit
07:39is
07:39a key
07:40does your fighting spirit
07:43give you the most
07:44satisfaction
07:44in your game
07:45and secondly
07:46you're
07:48a great sports fan
07:49who
07:49what athletes
07:50what players
07:52and other sports
07:53have inspired you
07:54in terms of that
07:55and
07:56what players
07:57specifically
07:58yeah
07:59with the fighting spirit
08:00I think it's something
08:00that
08:01you know
08:01I've
08:02you know
08:02I've had naturally
08:03but trying to be more
08:04positive is something
08:05I had to work on
08:06and
08:06yeah
08:07I'm really happy
08:08with how
08:08I'm able to
08:10reset
08:10and be positive
08:11and try my best
08:12to give
08:13you know
08:13the best mentality
08:14to show up
08:16and
08:16people from other sports
08:18that I've looked up to
08:19Sidney McLaughlin
08:21is someone that I
08:21really like
08:22and
08:23look up to
08:24in that way
08:25Simone Bows
08:27I think
08:27she just pushes herself
08:29and
08:29to me
08:30that's
08:30you know
08:31crazy
08:31because
08:31you know
08:32in tennis
08:32we had
08:33Rafa and
08:33Roger and Novak
08:34all pushing each other
08:35but in gymnastics
08:36she kind of
08:36doesn't really have anyone
08:37so
08:38the fact she's able
08:38to move that needle
08:39against herself
08:40I think is
08:40pretty cool
08:41and then
08:42you have
08:42the obvious
08:43like LeBron
08:43and Michael
08:45with those
08:45and Kobe
08:46with that
08:46Mamba mentality
08:47I think
08:47those are people
08:48I look up to
08:49outside of tennis
08:50but in tennis
08:50you know
08:51the usual
08:51Serena
08:52Rafa
08:52Novak
08:53Roger
08:53the best of the best
08:55is people
08:56I look up to
08:56since you just
09:02talked about
09:02that you
09:03changed the racket
09:04to adjust
09:05the condition
09:05I was wondering
09:06how normally
09:07how many
09:08rackets
09:09do you bring
09:09on the court
09:10and how many
09:11variety
09:12of like
09:13tension
09:13of strings
09:14do you prepare
09:15if you don't
09:15forget to bring
09:16it on the court
09:17yeah
09:18if I don't forget
09:19when I forget
09:21zero
09:21when I remember
09:22six
09:23and went
09:240 for six
09:25but usually
09:26I have like
09:26four of the
09:27tension
09:27that I
09:28most think
09:29I'm going to
09:29probably use
09:30the whole match
09:30just because
09:31of the ball
09:32changes and things
09:32and then I have
09:33two either
09:33tighter or lower
09:34and today
09:36they were tighter
09:37because I
09:38didn't
09:38the racket
09:39I started
09:39with for sure
09:40I knew
09:40I wasn't
09:40going to
09:41want to go
09:41any lower
09:41than that
09:42so yeah
09:43I just went
09:43tighter
09:44I thought
09:44you know
09:44colder day
09:45start the match
09:46off with a
09:46little bit
09:47of coolness
09:47I've practiced
09:48with the
09:48looser racket
09:48on the
09:49colder days
09:49but I
09:50don't know
09:51and also
09:52I don't know
09:52if it was
09:53a tension
09:53thing
09:53it's really
09:54two pounds
09:54so yeah
09:55it matters
09:55but it's
09:56also just
09:57two pounds
09:57so it
09:58probably
09:58didn't matter
09:58that much
09:59just on
10:01the sort
10:02of roller
10:02coaster
10:03nature
10:03of the
10:03match
10:04in this
10:04both in
10:05the second
10:06set
10:06and the
10:06third set
10:07you were
10:07like
10:07double break
10:084-1
10:09yes
10:09how do you
10:11what are you
10:12telling yourself
10:12in the third
10:13set when
10:14you're in
10:14that same
10:15position
10:15to avoid
10:16what happened
10:17in the
10:18second set
10:18yeah
10:19honestly
10:19I felt
10:20like it was
10:20an important
10:21game
10:21just because
10:21she was
10:21up double
10:22break
10:224-1
10:23and I
10:23came back
10:24and then
10:24that happened
10:25in the second
10:25so I was
10:26like this is
10:27you know
10:27usually in a
10:28match when you're
10:28up double
10:29break
10:294-1
10:29obviously
10:29you want
10:30to win
10:30that game
10:30but you know
10:31you're a little
10:31bit more
10:31relaxed
10:32but I was
10:32just like
10:33I gotta
10:33be more
10:33aggressive
10:34and put
10:35the ball
10:35on the
10:35court
10:35the 4-1
10:36game
10:36in the second
10:36I think
10:37I missed
10:37like four
10:38balls
10:39in the net
10:393-4 ends
10:40and a back
10:40end
10:40and a net
