Eugenie Bouchard is thrilled about the new role

The Canadian star will interact with Tennis Channel analysts and former player Lindsay Davenport, coach Paul Annacone, Chanda Rubin, and Jimmy Arias.

On this new role, Bouchard stated, “I’m very excited to work with Tennis Channel for the next few weeks. Whether at home or in a hotel on the road, I always have Tennis Channel on my TV. I’m really looking forward to joining the team in the studio.”

Reflecting on her season, Bouchard began her journey at the Australian Open but failed to go past the qualifying rounds. After that, she was seen in Mexico and came as far as the finals, losing to Sara Sorribes Tormo.

She competed in another tournament in Mexico and crashed out in the opening round, which was the last tournament she competed in.

It has been a while since she has been on Tour. As a fan, one hopes to see her get back on the courts fully fit and winning ways.
