Colleen "Coco" Vandeweghe (/ˈvændəweɪ/ VAN-de-WAY) (born Colleen Hutchins Mullarkey; December 6, 1991) is an American professional tennis player. She was the Junior US Open champion in 2008. Vandeweghe has also won two WTA titles, both at the Rosmalen Grass Court Championships in Den Bosch. Her other notable achievements are reaching the quarterfinals of the 2015 Wimbledon Championships and the semifinals of the 2017 Australian Open.
Vandeweghe was born in New York City. She is the granddaughter of 1952 Miss America Colleen Kay Hutchins and former New York Knick Ernie Vandeweghe, the niece of basketball player Kiki Vandeweghe, and the daughter of former Olympic swimmer Tauna Vandeweghe. She first started playing tennis with her elder brother, Beau, at the age of 11. It was the last sport she played in her early life before turning pro in April 2008. Self-described as a "total California girl", CoCo spends most of her off-season at the beach with her family. She is good friends with fellow American players Irina Falconi and Shelby Rogers.
