Coco Gauff Announced as Unrivaled Investor
(Black PR Wire) Recently, groundbreaking professional women’s basketball league Unrivaled announced women’s tennis star Coco Gauff as the latest in a long line of notable investors in the league.
“I’m thrilled to be joining Unrivaled as an investor,” said Coco Gauff. “Basketball is one of my favorite sports, and the chance to support a league that’s redefining the game is exciting. I look forward to being part of this movement and continuing to help elevate women’s sports to new heights.”
Last month, Unrivaled announced an oversubscribed Series A investment round. The League secured more than $28 million in Series A funding to go along with the $7 million raised during the league’s seed round, which was announced in May 2024. The combined $35 million is indicative of the tangible enthusiasm for Unrivaled that transcends and elevates women’s sports.
Gauff is the latest icon to invest in the upstart league. Additional investors to-date include Alex Morgan and Trybe Ventures, Carmelo Anthony, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Michael Phelps, Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis, The Berman Family, Dawn Staley, David Levy, John Skipper, Moira Forbes, Tyus and Tre Jones, Dan Rosensweig, Richard Sarnoff and Gary Vaynerchuk.
