Coco Gauff has been nominated for a big 2025 award in the non-tennis front, alongside the likes of WNBA star Angel Reese, Paris Hilton, actress Shay Mitchell and Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo.
Gauff had an impressive 2025 season, winning one Grand Slam title at the French Open and finishing as the World No. 3. For her display on the court, the American has been nominated for the WTA Player of the Year award.
However, another notable part about Gauff's career has been her presence on social media, especially TikTok. Now, the 21-year-old has been recognized for the same, getting nominated for the Muse of the Year at the TikTok Awards 2025.

Posting on Instagram afterwards, Gauff joked that she had no idea how she even earned the nomination nod in the first place, but requested fans to vote for her online.
"idk how I got nominated but ayee," Coco Gauff wrote, along with a request to vote for her.
Gauff has over 1.1 million followers on TikTok, and is a regular poster on the platform. Mostly, the American shares updates about her off-court life, from funny moments with her family and boyfriend to her escapades with her team during tournaments.
The TikTok Awards, in its debut year, will be given out on December 18 in Los Angeles.
How did Coco Gauff fare in the 2025 tennis season?
Coco Gauff had one of the best years of her career in 2025. At the Grand Slams, she finished 14-3, matching her best season in 2023. In the final of the French Open, she took down Aryna Sabalenka to win her second Grand Slam title overall and first at Roland Garros. At the WTA 1000 level, she reached the final of two and won the Wuhan Open, finishing 28-9 for her best record at the level.
She finished year-end World No. 3 for the third year in a row, behind Aryna Sabalenka and Iga Swiatek. Although Gauff qualified for the WTA Finals, she crashed out in the group stage, losing to Jessica Pegula and Sabalenka.
In doubles, she did not play at all at the Grand Slams, but won the Canadian Open with McCartney Kessler as her partner.
