The new champ shows off her trophy while lip-syncing the Top 10 hit.

Tennis phenom Coco Gauff won her first Grand Slam tournament over the weekend. The Atlanta native celebrated defeating Aryna Sabalenka at the 2023 U.S. Open by channeling New York City music stars Nicki Minaj and Ice Spice.

Gauff outlasted Sabalenka in New York’s Arthur Ashe Stadium (2-6, 6-3, 6-2) to prevail in the U.S. Open. Following her victory, the 19-year-old athlete posted herself lip-syncing “Barbie World” by Nicki Minaj and Ice Spice.

“Barbie World” lives on the Barbie: The Album soundtrack. The official Instagram account of the Warner Bros. Pictures-backed movie reposted Coco Gauff’s TikTok video to its page.
