  • World number three Coco Gauff said on Friday she decided to start her season at the United Cup instead of her happy hunting ground in Auckland as the event offers a higher level of competition and the chance to play as part of a team again.

Gauff, who had a breakthrough year in 2023 by winning her first Grand Slam title at the U.S. Open, expressed her excitement about playing in Sydney for the United Cup, highlighting the event's significance in her preparation for the first major of the year.
