By every account, the Gauffs are a family built around closeness, with athletics as the language everyone in the house speaks fluently. It is not one star being carried by relatives from the sidelines — it is a shared enterprise, the kind of tight-knit unit where a love of sport runs through the whole family rather than a single name. For a town that spends its winters watching talent get made on private courts and quiet mornings, it is a familiar shape: success that holds together because the people around it do too.

With reporting from Town & Country.
