Inside Coco Gauff’s exclusive hometown party celebrating US Open victory
The party was a success!
Coco Gauff celebrated her 2023 US Open victory with a private party in her hometown of Delray Beach, Florida on Saturday evening.
The 19-year-old tennis star commemorated her first Grand Slam title with her “inner circle” at the Ray Hotel, an insider exclusively told Page Six on Monday.
We’re told the young athlete and around 80 guests took over the venue and partied until the wee hours of the morning.
“Coco, her friends and family danced and laughed all night,” the source said, adding that “everyone was in a great mood.”
We hear the festivities kicking off in the trendy hotel lobby before heading to star chef Akira Back’s rooftop restaurant, Rosewater Rooftop.
“Around midnight, the group brought out a special cake to commemorate Coco’s victory,” the source said, adding that attendees started dancing by the hotel’s rooftop pool.
Gauff wore a pink mini dress adorned with pearl flowers and she accessorized it with strappy gold heels and gold earrings.
A few of his friends shared photos of the celebration on social media in honor of Gauff’s huge triumph.
“My champ 💖,” Jamilah Nicole Snells, Gauff’s friend and tennis player, wrote on Instagram along with photos from the party.
“we ate❤️❤️❤️,” Gauff commented on the post, adding, “I love you 💖💖💖💖.”
Gauff’s other friend also shared photos from the exclusive party, captioning the Instagram post: “Good times with good people! Congratulations Coco🏆.
The tennis champion replied: “Thanks for coming pretty❤️❤️❤️❤️.”

The insider gushed that Gauff’s swanky bash was an “all-evening affair” and a “fabulous night” for all.
The Florida native won the 2023 US Open women’s singles championship by defeating Belarusian pro Aryna Sabalenka, 25, at Arthur Ashe Stadium in Queens, New York, on September 9.
“I think the three words I would like [use to describe this] “Dreams come true” and it’s crazy,” Gauff told reporters after his victory.
Gauff became the youngest American US Open champion since Serena Williams won the title at age 19 in 1999.
