Okay, so today I decided to check out this “coco gauff match” thing everyone’s been talking about. I’m not a huge tennis person, but I’ve heard the name Coco Gauff, and I figured, why not?
First, I had to figure out where to even watch this match. I’m not gonna lie, I spent a good 10 minutes just Googling around, trying different search terms. It was kinda confusing at first.
Finally, I found it! I am not gonna tell the names for some reasons. I Pulled up the stream, and wow, these two are intense. Seriously, the speed of those balls! I can barely keep up with where it’s going.
I started trying to understand the scoring. I mean, I know the basics, like “love” means zero, but it’s still a bit weird. 15, 30, 40… what’s up with that? I did a quick search and found out. It’s something related the clock positions, pretty interesting though.
The crowd though! It is so much more engaging watching it with some folks around.
Cheering and clapping, it definitely added to the * made me feel like I was almost there, even though I was just on my couch.
What surprised me most was how much I got into it.I found myself holding my breath during some of those long rallies, and even fist-pumping a couple of times when Gauff scored a point. (Don’t judge me!).
Ultimately, Gauff won the match, but honestly, both players were incredible. It was a real nail-biter, going back and forth. I’m totally exhausted, I am not sure how they play for hours.
I gotta say, I’m glad I took the time to watch this. I might even try to catch some more matches in the future. Maybe I’ll even become a real tennis fan, who knows?
