Coco Gauff's Must Haves: From a Fruit Smoothie to a Squishmallow

After competing in the 2024 Paris Olympics, 20-year-old tennis pro, Coco Gauff — now ranked the No. 2 player in the world — is already setting her sights on another competition: the 2024 US Open, which kicks off today and serves as a homecoming for the superstar athlete, who won the women's singles tennis title at the 2023 US Open.

While training for larger competitions like the US Open is no easy feat, Gauff has her routine down. That includes a plastic container of cut fruit, which fans noticed by her side as she took home her first-ever major singles title at the US Open in September 2023. She's been munching on homemade fruit salad both on and off the court since she was young. "I love fruit and fruit juices. They've always been a part of my routine," Gauff says. "My mom sent me to practice or tournaments with a container of cut-up fruit like mangoes, pineapple, and grapes — and she still does to this day."

Gauff's since added Naked's fruit smoothies to her regimen to "complement" her fruit salads, noting they're "an easy on-the-go option on and off the court." She recently partnered with Naked and became the brand's first chief smoothie officer — a CSO, if you will — to collaborate on smoothies and help shape the future of the company. "While I can't share too much at this time, I can't wait to put my mark on the brand and future product development," she shares.

Ahead, the athlete tells PS about her current must-have products, including a low-sugar juice, a soothing face cleanser, a cozy Squishmallow, and more.
