Eugenie "Genie" Bouchard[1] (born February 25, 1994) is a Canadian professional tennis player who is currently ranked no. 46 in the world.[2] At the 2014 Wimbledon Championships, Bouchard became the first Canadian-born player representing Canada[lower-alpha 1] to reach the finals of a Grand Slam in singles, finishing runner-up to Petra Kvitová.[3] She also reached the semifinals of the 2014 Australian Open[4] and 2014 French Open,[5] and won the 2012 Wimbledon girls' title.[6] Following the end of the 2013 WTA Tour, she was named WTA Newcomer of the Year.[7][8] The next year, Bouchard received the WTA Most Improved Player award for the 2014 season.[9]

Personal life

Eugenie Bouchard was born to Michel Bouchard, an investment banker, and Julie Leclair in Montreal.[10] She has a fraternal twin sister, Beatrice, who is six minutes older. She also has two younger siblings, sister Charlotte (born 1995) and brother William (born 1999).[11] She and her twin sister are named after Prince Andrew's daughters; Beatrice is named after Princess Beatrice of York, while Eugenie is named after Princess Eugenie of York. Her sister Charlotte is named after Charlotte Casiraghi, the daughter of Monagesque Royal Caroline, Princess of Hanover and Italian businessman Stefano Casiraghi[12] and William is named after Prince William, Duke of Cambridge.[13] She is fluent in both French and English.

Bouchard started playing tennis at the age of five and she is a member of Tennis Canada's National Training Centre in Montreal. She attended The Study school in Westmount. At age 12, she moved to Florida with her mother to be coached by Nick Saviano,[14] where she met one of her best childhood friends, tennis player Laura Robson. From that time on, she was nicknamed "the chosen one" by her siblings.[15] Her father established a limited partnership called "Tennis Mania" to support Eugenie's career. He and two investors contributed money to the partnership in exchange for 10 percent of Bouchard's future earnings when she would become a professional tennis player. In August 2013, a court ruled that the partnership has no legal claims as Eugenie, then a 9-year-old, could not have reasonably agreed to giving away parts of her future earnings. Her father had argued that the money he had put into the partnership before Eugenie turned pro was a business loss which would have meant a tax benefit for himself.[16]

At 15, Bouchard returned to Montreal for training.[14] A proficient student in mathematics and science, she once considered a career as a physician.[17] Her favourite tennis player is Roger Federer, whom she met in 2012 at the Wimbledon Ball. She described talking with Federer as a highlight of her life.[14] For the 2013 WTA Tour, Bouchard enlisted Nathalie Tauziat to coach and travel with her part-time. Under Tauziat, Bouchard transformed her defensive, retrieving tactics from junior level into a game of aggression.[18] Tauziat was let go after the season and Saviano committed to a more present role alongside Bouchard, for the 2014 WTA Tour. During the 2013 off-season she appeared on CTV Montreal as a guest weather anchor.

Tennis career

In 2005, Bouchard participated at the tournament Open Super 12 in Auray, France. She captured the ITF singles and doubles titles in Costa Rica and also the All Canadian ITF singles title in Burlington in 2008. In 2009 and at only 15, she won the Canadian under-18 indoor championship in Toronto. At this event, Bouchard overpowered fellow Quebecer Marianne Jodoin to become, at 15 years and a month, one of the youngest winners of the indoor event. Later that year, she won her first professional main draw match at Caserta, Italy, defeating no. 798 Frederica Grazioso. Also in 2009, she won the Pan American Closed ITF Championships.[19]

It was the first top-10 victory of her young career. Although she lost to Jelena Janković, the quarterfinal appearance assured her a spot in the top-100 for the first time.[34] Bouchard went on to play a French Open warm up tournament, the Internationaux de Strasbourg, where she had one of her most impressive runs on the WTA Tour to date.

In the quarterfinals, Bouchard defeated Ana Ivanovic and advanced to the semifinals. She was eliminated by world no. 4 Li Na in the semifinals, but guaranteed herself a spot in the world's top 20 for the first time.[52] Two weeks later, she won both of her singles matches in the Fed Cup World Group II first round against Serbia, helping Canada reach the World Group playoffs for the first time since 2004.[53]

At the BNP Paribas Open, Bouchard defeated Peng Shuai in the second round and scored her third win over a member of the top 10 with a victory over Sara Errani in the third round.[54] Her run was stopped by world No. 7 Simona Halep in the fourth round.[55] Bouchard reached the quarterfinals of the Family Circle Cup for the second straight year with wins over Alla Kudryavtseva and Venus Williams in the second and third rounds respectively.[56] She then advanced to the semifinals for the first time after defeating world no. 8 Jelena Janković, her fourth win over a top-10 player, but lost to Andrea Petkovic.[57][58] At the Fed Cup World Group Play-offs two weeks later, Bouchard helped Canada get its place in the World Group I, the first time for the country since the introduction of the new World Group format in 1995, by winning her two singles matches.[59] At the Nürnberger Versicherungscup, a French Open warm-up tournament, Bouchard won the first WTA singles title of her career with a victory over Karolína Plíšková in the final.

At the French Open, Bouchard defeated Shahar Pe'er, Julia Görges, and Johanna Larsson in the first three rounds to set up a clash with world no. 9 Angelique Kerber in the round of 16. She won the match in straight sets in only 52 minutes, her fifth victory over a member of the top 10, to reach the quarterfinals.

She had been the image of promotion for the tournament and promoted widely. Her last-minute withdrawal sparked criticism, as she had allegedly agreed to appearance fees and signed contracts, to which the WTA responded by fining the tournament official. At the inaugural Wuhan Open, Bouchard reached her first WTA Premier 5 final with wins over Mona Barthel, Alison Riske, Alizé Cornet and no. 7 Caroline Wozniacki.[68] She was defeated by Petra Kvitová in the final, in a rematch of the Wimbledon final.[69]

At the end of the 2014 season, she was named the WTA Most Improved Player.[9] On November 24, 2014, it was announced that Saviano and Bouchard were parting ways.[72]

2015: Out of form, concussion and lawsuit

Bouchard in 2015

Bouchard started her season at the Hopman Cup, representing Canada alongside Vasek Pospisil. She lost her first match against Czech Republic's Lucie Šafářová and Canada went on to lose the tie. Then in the tie against the United States, Bouchard beat Serena Williams, while Pospisil beat John Isner to give Canada the win. They defeated Italy in the last tie, but despite the win, they finished second in the group and were eliminated.[73] At the Australian Open, Bouchard lost in the quarterfinals to Maria Sharapova in straight sets.[74] On February 5, 2015, Bouchard began working with Sam Sumyk, who had previously coached Victoria Azarenka to grand slam success.[75]

Bouchard, the top seed at BNP Paribas Fortis Diamond Games at Antwerp, was eliminated in the second round by Mona Barthel after a first-round bye.[76] At the BNP Paribas Open, Bouchard was eliminated in the fourth round by qualifier Lesia Tsurenko.[77] A week later in Miami, after receiving a first-round bye, Bouchard was defeated in the second round by yet another qualifier, Tatjana Maria in straight sets.[78]

Bouchard began her clay season at the Family Circle Cup. After receiving a bye in the first round, she lost in the second round to unseeded Lauren Davis in straight sets.[79] Bouchard then participated in Fed Cup, representing team Canada. She went on to lose both of her singles matches to Romanians Alexandra Dulgheru and Andreea Mitu. Canada was hence relegated to the World Group II division.[80]

Bouchard lost her first-round match against Barbora Strýcová at the Madrid Open after winning the first set and up with a break in the second, which put her losing streak at the time at six matches.[81] The next week at the Internazionali BNL d'Italia, she won her first match since March after defeating Zarina Diyas in the second round, but lost in the next round to eventual finalist Carla Suárez Navarro.[82] At the French Open, Bouchard was eliminated in the first round, losing to Kristina Mladenovic.[83]

Bouchard's losing streak continued when she lost in the first round to Yaroslava Shvedova at the Topshelf Open as a wildcard entry and top seed, then in the second round of the Aegon Classic yet again to Mladenovic after getting bagelled in the third set in Birmingham, having received a first round bye.[84] Bouchard won her first match on grass by defeating Alison Riske in the second round in Eastbourne. However, she was forced to retire against eventual champion Belinda Bencic in round three with an abdominal injury.[85] Bouchard next headed to Wimbledon as the defending finalist and the 12th seed.[86] She was taken down in straight sets by qualifier Duan Yingying in the opening round, her second consecutive first round loss at the Grand Slams.[87] This loss would push her down to no. 26, her first time out of the top 20 since her semifinal appearance at the 2014 Australian Open. After just six months, Sumyk was fired by Bouchard as coach.[88]

At the Rogers Cup in August, her first tournament in more than a month and her home event, Bouchard was again defeated by eventual champion Belinda Bencic in the first round.[89] Ana Ivanovic said about that: "I went through that and it's not easy," "And every person or player goes through it differently because of their character. And (Bouchard) is very young. I think it's important to go back to her basics and what works for her and to work hard and actually listen to herself. (Do) what she needs to do rather than being too much influenced by outside people."Surround herself with the right people and then stick with it. [90]"At the Western & Southern Open the next week, she progressed to the second round over Kateryna Bondarenko in two tie-breaks, her first match win since June, but was immediately eliminated by eventual semifinalist Elina Svitolina.[91] In New Haven, Bouchard was defeated easily in the first round by Roberta Vinci.[92]

At the US Open, she defeated Alison Riske and Polona Hercog, respectively, in the first and second rounds, her first back-to-back wins since March at the BNP Paribas Open.[93] She next faced Dominika Cibulková and won in three sets to reach the fourth round for the second straight year.[94] The tournament was seen as her return to form, as she was also advancing in the doubles and mixed doubles.[95] She was scheduled to play Roberta Vinci in the fourth round, but had to withdraw due to a concussion, an injury she suffered after slipping and falling in the locker-room.[96] The injury also forced her to withdraw from other tournaments[95] and she played only one match in the rest of 2015, against Andrea Petkovic at the China Open, a match she had to retire from in the second set after suffering from dizziness.[97] A lawsuit has been filed against the United States Tennis Association on her behalf, seeking damages following a jury trial, saying that she suffered a "severe head injury" because the floor of the women's locker room had been swabbed with a "slippery, foreign and dangerous substance" which had not been cleaned up.[98][99]

2016: Mixed results

After over three months since her last match, Bouchard started the new season at the Shenzhen Open, winning in the first two rounds over Donna Vekić and Nicole Gibbs, respectively. She was defeated by Tímea Babos in the quarterfinals.[100] The following week at the Hobart International, she had her most decisive victory in almost a year, beating Bethanie Mattek-Sands with the loss of just three games, followed by a tough straight-set win over Alison Van Uytvanck to bring her into her second straight quarterfinal of the year. She then defeated Camila Giorgi and Dominika Cibulková to reach her first final since the 2014 Wuhan Open; however, she lost in straight sets to Alizé Cornet.[101]

Bouchard next played the Australian Open, where she was unseeded at a grand slam for the first time since 2013. She won her opening match against Aleksandra Krunić, before falling to world no. 4 Agnieszka Radwańska in the second round.[102] In February, she reached the third round of the Qatar Total Open before falling to Zheng Saisai in straight sets.[103] In March at the Malaysian Open, Bouchard advanced to her second final of the season where she was defeated by Elina Svitolina in three sets.[104]

At Indian Wells, she lost in the third round to Timea Bacsinszky.[105] After mutually parting ways with Thomas Hogstedt, Bouchard re-hired Saviano as coach prior to the clay court season.[106] At the French Open, she advanced to the second round but lost to Bacsinszky again, despite leading 4–1 in the first set.[107] After the match, Bouchard publicly admitted that her struggles on the court the previous year had led to her struggling to eat properly. This sparked rumours that she had developed an eating disorder, which she soon denied.[108][109]

Bouchard's grass court season began with a loss to qualifier Elise Mertens at the Ricoh Open in which she won just two games.[110] She went on to be eliminated at the second round of the Mallorca Open by Anastasija Sevastova[111] and then reached the third round at Eastbourne, losing again to Radwanska.[112] At Wimbledon, Bouchard beat Magdalena Rybarikova in straight sets, in a match that began on the outside courts but was finished under the closed roof of Centre Court due to an extremely long rain delay.[113] Less than 24 hours later, she was back on Centre Court and won back-to-back matches in a grand slam for the first time this year, defeating Johanna Konta in three sets.[114] In the third round, she lost in straight sets to Dominika Cibulkova.

At her home tournament the Rogers Cup, Bouchard advanced to the third round with wins over Lucie Šafářová and world no. 10 Dominika Cibulková. Her run was stopped by qualifier Kristína Kučová.[115] She next competed at the Summer Olympics in Rio. She won her opening match over Sloane Stephens, but was defeated by world no. 2 Angelique Kerber in the next round. She also reached the second round in doubles with Gabriela Dabrowski.[116] At the US Open, Bouchard lost to Kateřina Siniaková in the first round.[117]

Playing style and equipment

Bouchard plays very aggressive tennis and is known for hitting the ball early and rushing her opponent with a severely high groundstroke tempo.[118] She will also make drastic and unpredictable changes in ball direction, which also causes many points won and winners, as her opponents don't know where she's going. However a lot of her shots tend to land outside the court, making the shot accuracy percentage very low.

Bouchard uses a Babolat Pure Aero racquet. Her equipment sponsors are Nike and Babolat.[119]

Marketing

In June 2014, Bouchard signed a three-year endorsement deal with Coca-Cola, following earlier agreements with Rogers Communications, Pinty's, and equipment sponsors Nike and Babolat.[119] The following summer in June 2015, Bouchard signed a 10-year partnership with Aviva Canada.[120]

Bouchard played for Team Canada at the 2016 NBA All-Star Weekend Celebrity Game held at Toronto, partnering with tennis player Milos Raonic and former WNBA player Tammy Sutton-Brown.[121]
