Eugenie Bouchard knows how to keep her fans hooked, whether she’s smashing it on the tennis court or showing off her skills in the fast-paced world of pickleball. But this time, the buzz isn’t about her athletic prowess—it’s about her big heart. The tennis star is turning heads for a reason far more special than professional achievements: her desire to give back to the community in a unique fashion. 

The Canadian player started playing pickleball after failing to qualify for the US Open last year. Eventually, she started competing at a professional level joining many players who try to amalgamate their tennis skills on pickleball courts. But now, she seems to be taking a much-deserved from her professional duties and shifting her attention to some social work ahead of Christmas.

Taking to her Instagram story, Bouchard shared a string of pictures of herself as she participated in the Meals in Heels event organized by the Major Food Group. The event aims to prepare and package meals for underserved populations and inspire many others to join the initiative. In the pictures, Bouchard is seen wearing a Red-white Christmas Hat and a white Apron as she prepares the meal boxes to be served out. 

Captioning one of the stories, Bouchard wrote, “filling these babies up w delicious @carbonfinefood to give out.” Her joy was witnessed in yet another story as she wrote, “Meals in Heels ❤️,” signifying how wholesome her day was. Bouchard was also joined by American Media personality Alix Earle and American footballer Braxton Berrios who also contributed to the initiative. But interestingly, this is not the only way the star player is enjoying the festive season. 

The 30-year-old took to her Instagram account in early December and shared a carousel of pictures from her outing with friends. She was spotted in an all-white furry ensemble that perfectly captured the holiday vibe. The pictures also highlighted Eugenie Bouchard and her friends joyfully selecting Christmassy items and returning home with their arms filled with goodies. Bouchard captioned her IG post, “Just girls trying to find Christmas decorations,” reflecting that her preparations for Christmas have also started. And these activities are quite justified given the happiness she has expressed for Christmas in the past. 

When Eugenie Bouchard expressed her excitement about Christmas

Christmas is definitely awaited by many people across the globe. But for some, it is not just about celebrations and delicacies, but also about meeting family and friends after a long time. The situation with Eugenie Bouchard is pretty similar, for whom, the festival brings immense excitement and the opportunity to take a break from her professional duties and return to her home. 

In an interview with Hello magazine in 2017, the former WTA star shared her excitement for Christmas. “I’m always training down south, so I always try to come back to Montreal for one or two days and just have so much fun with my family. Continuing further, she highlighted the importance of the Christmas holidays and added, “It’s the most important thing, and with the holidays, you really have to celebrate that.”

Now, as Christmas inches closer, it would be interesting to see what other way the Canadian star chooses to celebrate the holidays and give back to society.
