Publish date: 2024-06-11

Although Coco Gauff is still too young to drink or barely old enough to vote in the USA, that hasn't stopped her from amassing quite a fortune.

The 19-year-old earned quite the payday over the weekend, defeating Belarus' Arena Sabalenka to become the US Open champion.

The victory saw Gauff take home $3 million, a figure that helped boost her season earning to $5.5 million and her career earnings to $11.1 million.

Even without the Grand Slam title, Gauff would still have quite the bank account thanks to her growing list of endorsement deals.

Who does Gauff have endorsement deals with?

During the US Open, Gauff was regularly seen sporting her maroon New Balance outfit with Bose headphones and a Head racket, all sponsors who shared the spotlight with the 19-year-old.

Some of the other brands attached to the youngster include Barilla, UPS and Baker Tilly.

While Gauff's endorsement earnings haven't been revealed for 2023, Forbes did report that she earned $8 million last year.

Along with several endorsement deals, Gauff has showed she isn't afraid to speak out on matters of interest to her either.

She said she took motivation from negative comments on social media before facing Sabalenka. She also said she agreed with protestors who interrupted her semifinal for 50 minutes as they looked to bring attention to climate change.

Gauff also called out gun violence in the United States prior to last year's French Open.
