Coco Gauff is embracing the holiday spirit with a major personal milestone. The World No. 3 recently gave fans a tour of her Christmas setup on Instagram, marking her first time decorating since becoming a homeowner.
How Did Coco Gauff Celebrate Her First Christmas as a Homeowner?
The Atlanta native shared a look at her holiday handiwork through her Instagram stories, revealing not just one, but two Christmas trees. The main tree in her living area features a classic look with lights, a red ribbon, and assorted ornaments. A red tree skirt sits underneath, while a yellow star tops the display.
Gauff didn’t stop there. She also styled a smaller tree for her bedroom, choosing a purple theme to match her favorite color. This tree features large silver glass balls and a star with blue lights, resting above a purple cloth. Fans also spotted several plush toys, including a gingerbread figure, adding a cozy vibe to the room.
Gauff shared her excitement about the moment in her captions. For the main tree, she wrote, “put up my first tree being a homeowner ♡ lol last year I didn’t decorate.”
She followed up with the bedroom setup, adding, “even did my bedroom a little bit lol & yes purple is my fav color.”
Beyond the holiday cheer, Gauff is winning big on the business side. She recently topped Sportico’s list of highest-paid female athletes and expanded her portfolio significantly. The tennis star signed a new deal with Mercedes-Benz, joining the luxury brand as a global ambassador.
Who Will Join Gauff at the 2026 United Cup?
Gauff will soon switch from decorating to dominating as she prepares to defend her title with Team USA at the 2026 United Cup. She will compete alongside Taylor Fritz, Mackenzie McDonald, Christian Harrison, Varvara Lepchenko, and Nicole Melichar-Martinez.
The tournament runs from Jan. 2 to Jan. 11, 2026, in Perth and Sydney, Australia. It serves as a key warmup for the Australian Open, with top names like Iga ÅšwiÄ…tek and Emma Raducanu set to represent their nations.
United Cup director Stephen Farrow had expressed excitement about the field via the ATP Tour.
“The entry list for the United Cup this summer is world-class,” Farrow said. “We’re excited to welcome five of the world’s top 10 men and four of the world’s top 10 women in 2026. The United Cup holds a unique position in global tennis, with the world’s best men and women committed to playing in mixed teams and showcasing equality in the sport.”
He continued, “It will be fascinating to see where the likes of Iga Swiatek, Coco Gauff, Alexander Zverev, Alex de Minaur, Taylor Fritz and Jasmine Paolini end up competing.”
The action will unfold at RAC Arena and Ken Rosewall Arena as the 2026 season kicks into high gear.
