American tennis star Coco Gauff mourned the loss of TikTok's app in the United States, writing 'RIP TikTok USA' on a camera lens following her victory over Belinda Bencic at the Australian Open.

TikTok later said it was restoring services in the US after Donald Trump pledged to give the video app a reprieve on its US ban
