Coco Gauff Named Newest Wheaties Champion

Coco Gauff, the rising tennis star, has added another achievement to her already impressive resume by becoming the latest athlete to be featured on the iconic Wheaties cereal box. At just 20 years old, Gauff has quickly made a name for herself in the world of tennis, winning multiple titles and breaking records along the way.

Wheaties, known as the “Breakfast of Champions,” has a long history of honoring top athletes from various sports. Gauff joins the ranks of legends like Muhammad Ali, Michael Jordan, and Serena Williams as a Wheaties Champion. Her dedication to the sport and her activism work off the court have earned her this prestigious recognition.

In 2023, Gauff made history by becoming the youngest person to win a Grand Slam title since Serena Williams. Since then, she has continued to impress on the court, holding seven WTA singles titles and currently ranking as the No. 2 women’s singles player in the world. Her drive and determination have not gone unnoticed, with influential figures like Michelle Obama and Billie Jean King praising her talent and work ethic.

Speaking about her latest achievement, Gauff expressed her gratitude for being chosen as the next Wheaties Champion. She will receive the title from tennis icon Billie Jean King during US Open Fan Week, where they will discuss their careers and experiences as athletes and activists. Gauff hopes to inspire the next generation to dream big and work hard, just as her role models have done for her.

Fans can purchase Gauff’s limited-edition Wheaties box at major retailers starting this month, celebrating her incredible journey and the bright future ahead for this young tennis sensation.
