A former runner-up at Wimbledon Championships, the Canadian’s career has been a roller-coaster ride with a series of injuries affecting her game more often than not.

Bouchard admitted that she has been dealing with pain in her right-shoulder since 2020, and the injury she suffered at WTA Monterrey earlier this year deteriorated the situation further.

The Canadian’s rise to stardom began when she reached the semi-finals of the 2014 Australian Open , after defeating Ana Ivanovic in the quarters. She lost to Li Na in the semi-finals.

A few months later, at the French Open, Bouchard defeated Angelique Kerber and Carla Suarez Navarro. Her incredible run to the semis was stopped by the eventual champion, Maria Sharapova.

Eugenie Bouchard had a memorable Wimbledon run the same year but lost to Petra Kvitova in the finals. Her last title came at the WTA Auckland Open in 2019, where she partnered with the rising American tennis star, Sofia Kenin.
