Looking at her social media posts, fans anticipated a Wimbledon comeback for Bouchard. However, days prior to the tournament, the 2014 runner-up announced her withdrawal from the tournament. But despite the withdrawal, emails from Wimbledon have been leaving her weeping.

The emotional connection between Eugenie Bouchard and Wimbledon

Going back in time, in 2014, Bouchard played her first and only Grand Slam final at the Wimbledon Championships. Following that, she suffered a series of early round losses in the succeeding years. However, the losses didn’t let the love for Wimbledon go down from Bouchard’s mind. The result? To date, Bouchard addresses Wimbledon as her favorite tournament on the entire tour.

As understood by her social media posts, Bouchard aimed for a Wimbledon comeback this year. However, WTA’s decision to strip off ranking points from the tournament acted as a major decision maker for the 28-year-old. While Bouchard seemed to have gotten over the unfortunate scenario of not playing at Wimbledon, an email from the tournament had her go into nostalgia.

As is known by fans, players book practice courts to train or warm up for their matches. However, Bouchard experienced a rather hilarious act by the officials of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club. Despite not being present at the Championships, Bouchard received an email from the practice court booking team of Wimbledon. The email read, “Aorangi Courts will open from 11.00. Match warm-ups have priority.”

Being her favorite tournament, the email from the Championships had a lasting impact on Bouchard. Getting emotional, the Canadian took to her Instagram, uploading a post. The post featured the screenshot of the email, with a caption that said, “Painful getting these emails.”
