Eugenie Bouchard has been one of the top Canadian tennis players over the last decade. She was a player to watch out for after her tremendous success on the junior circuit. Bouchard translated that form early on in her senior career. In 2014, she reached the Wimbledon final before going down tamely against Petra Kvitova in the summit clash.

Once a top-five player, Bouchard has been riddled with inconsistency throughout her tennis career. Over the past year, she is away from the sport owing to a shoulder injury. Recently, she recounted her ‘disaster’ date with a guy on a beach.
