Female tennis player Coco Gauff soaked in her win at the French Open on Saturday for about five seconds - and then turned the moment into a conversation about race. Gauff defeated No. 1-ranked Aryna Sabalenka 6-7 (5), 6-2, 6-4 to become the first American to win at Roland-Garros since Serena Williams won in 2015.
