In a heartening turn of events, Coco Gauff and Aryna Sabalenka have mended fences following their French Open final encounter. As the Wimbledon tournament kicks off, Gauff is urging the public to move on from Sabalenka's controversial post-match comments, stressing the importance of forgiveness and understanding.

A recent TikTok video of the duo dancing together on Wimbledon's Centre Court has become a clear indicator that the two tennis stars are on good terms again. However, this comes on the heels of significant backlash faced by Sabalenka, especially from the U.S. audience, over her remarks attributing her loss more to personal errors than to Gauff's prowess.

Gauff, adopting a stance of peace and camaraderie, is committed to defusing further negativity. Meanwhile, Sabalenka has expressed her regret and clarified her intentions, reiterating that she meant no offense and was merely overwhelmed by emotions. Both athletes are now focused on their upcoming Wimbledon matches and maintaining their positive rapport.
