“I told my mom, I literally said, ‘It was an addictive feeling.’ As soon as I felt that, I wanted to refeel it again,” Coco Gauff told Vogue. “I said, ‘Now I see how people get addicted to drugs.’ That feeling was a drug. For the rest of my life, the rest of my career, I’m going to be chasing that high.”

“That was a feeling I’ll never be able to replicate no matter how many more matches I win. I want to win more so I can get as close to the feeling,” she added.
