Coco Gauff thanks family, fans after winning 2023 US Open 🏆 [FULL TROPHY CEREMONY] | 2023 US Open

[@scoot8792]

Her win is a reflection of her hard work, and her maturity and class are a reflection of the great job her parents did to raise her. Well deserved. Great game

[@TechWizz]

Couldn't have said it better.

[@nealyhoo]

I greatly dislike the use of 'CLASS' to describe any human. This is BS pushed by those who can't give equality to all humans. No one is better than another because of CLASS, and if you meant it in some other way, that is the incorrect use of the word. I hate when I hear it used to describe someone, as it cheapens them. Try to improve your descriptive power.

[@tannerseaman1]

@@nealyhooyou ok?

[@rmac5584]

@@nealyhoo Having class in this context has nothing to do with equality. It involves having good manners, politeness, pride without showboating, empathy, humility, and an abundance of self-control.

[@nealyhoo]

@@rmac5584 Class is a term used only by White People to 'accept' another human into their 'level'...and it is BS. No black person uses the term. Coco would not be pleased to hear people saying she was 'classy'...it would mean nothing to her. In fact she would recognize it for the sad attempt to flex power, that she would need someone to 'accept her into their class of society'. That is where the term comes from, to remind others that they are of a higher 'class', and that it is only with their 'approval' that another human can be on their level. It is outdated BS. Have a good one!
