Eugenie Bouchard was born in Montreal in 1994 and had the best season of her career in 2014 when she reached the final at Wimbledon (defeated by Petra Kvitova) and the semifinals at the Australian Open and Roland Garros.
In the same year he also reached his best position in the WTA rankings and climbed to 5th place. In May 2014 she also won her first and only WTA title, which she won in the Nuremberg final against Karolina Pliskova.
Since then, Eugenie has made six WTA finals and always lost (falling in straight sets to Sara Sorribes Tormo in Guadalajara, Mexico last month). A few weeks ago Bouchard – today among the top 100 players in the world – lost in the first round of the Monterrey Open, stopped by Chinese Zhu Lin with a result of 7-5, 7-6.

The Sars-Cov-19 pandemic, which officially broke out in early 2020, is still a long way from being defeated. The latest record sees nearly 3 million deaths worldwide, with infections reaching 135 million.
In recent months, however, the whole world has finally been able to get its hands on the only real weapon we have at our disposal: the vaccine, the administration of which – between more or less virtuous countries – usually between December and January at a more or less high rate Tempo started.
In tennis, however, there was no shortage of voices opposed to this solution, especially following the strong recommendations of the ATP and the WTA of players who supported the use of the vaccine: among them Andrey Rublev, Diego Schwartzman, Elina Svitolina and Aryna Sabalenka.
Bouchard, on the other hand, seems to have completely opposite ideas, recently announcing in a post on Twitter that he had received his vaccine dose: “I received my Willy Wonka Golden Ticket,” he wrote in the description, referring to the famous movie.
Eugenie added: “It will bring us back to real life” In the past few weeks, Romanian Simona Halep had also been vaccinated. Photo credit: Tennis Circus
