    It's safe to say that tennis sensation Coco Gauff is not too happy with her living situation at the Olympic Village in Paris.

    At the start of the Summer Games on Saturday, Gauff uploaded a TikTok video to expose the shocking conditions she and her USA teammates had to deal with.

    In the video, Gauff revealed their terrible bathroom problem where 10 girls had to share two bathrooms. She showed several women preparing themselves, trying to get their hair and makeup done.

    The tennis superstar claimed that some of her teammates were forced to leave the Olympic Village and move to a hotel.

    "10 girls, two bathrooms," Gauff wrote on the video. In a separate comment, she added: "all the tennis girls moved to a hotel except me. so now just 5 girls two bathrooms."

    It's definitely not the best living situation for athletes who are expected to perform at the highest physical level. It might be part of the challenge of being in the Olympics, but it's still not a good look in a competition where the best of the best compete.

    Aside from the bathroom, the cardboard beds and lack of air conditioning in the Olympic Village rooms have also drawn scrutiny.

    Hopefully for Coco Gauff and the other USA athletes, it won't affect their performances in their respective sports.
