Coco Gauff got to live out a dream this weekend, catching Beyoncé’s spectacular Cowboy Carter Tour show in Atlanta with boyfriend Jalen Sera. The tennis star, fresh off her second Grand Slam victory at the 2025 French Open, traded her racket for cowboy boots as she soaked up the electric atmosphere of one of the year’s hottest concerts.
How Did Coco Gauff and Jalen Sera Experience the Cowboy Carter Show?
The couple fully embraced the Western theme that has made Beyoncé’s latest tour a cultural phenomenon. Gauff showed up dressed in cowboy-inspired attire, sharing glimpses of their date night through her Instagram stories. The posts captured her singing along to hits performed by Beyoncé and Jay-Z, clearly enjoying every moment of the show.
Sera, who has been dating Gauff since 2023, couldn’t contain his excitement either. He posted his own clip of Beyoncé’s performance with the caption: “Wowowowow.”
What Makes Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter Tour So Special?
The tour celebrates Beyoncé’s 2024 album Cowboy Carter, a bold project that reclaims the Black origins of country music while weaving in elements of pop, soul, and rock. The production is nothing short of spectacular, featuring a star-shaped stage, mechanical bulls, flying cars, and Beyoncé herself appearing atop a golden horse.
The concert series kicked off on April 28 in Los Angeles and runs through July 25 in Las Vegas, hitting sold-out venues across North America and Europe. For Gauff, catching the Atlanta show provided perfect timing for some well-deserved relaxation.
Why Was This Concert Perfect Timing for Gauff?
Gauff has been taking time to recharge at home before the North American hard-court season begins. The break came after a disappointing early exit at Wimbledon, where she suffered a first-round upset loss to Ukraine’s Dayana Yastremska.
“It’s the win of her career.”

Despite the Wimbledon setback, Gauff has plenty to celebrate after capturing her second Grand Slam singles title at the 2025 French Open. The concert provided the perfect opportunity to unwind and enjoy some quality time with Sera before returning to competitive action.
What Did Gauff Previously Say About Beyoncé’s Impact on Her?
This concert experience takes on extra meaning when you consider what Gauff revealed during the US Open 2023. When asked which celebrity could potentially distract her during a match, she didn’t hesitate to name Beyoncé. She even admitted that if the music icon ever attended one of her matches, she hoped the camera crew would avoid putting her on the big screen to help her stay focused.

“I guess which celebrity I would be starstruck, definitely Beyonce,” Gauff said. “If she ever came, oh, my goodness, I hope they would not show her on the screen. Maybe at the end (smiling). When I’m playing tennis, I think about a lot of things outside of tennis.”
Now Gauff got to experience Beyoncé’s artistry up close, trading the pressure of center court for the pure joy of being a fan in the crowd. With the hard-court season approaching, this night of music and celebration with Sera provided exactly the kind of recharge she needed.
