The Canadian tennis star previously shared an update regarding her shoulder surgery in June. Bouchard took to Instagram and Twitter to update the news to her fans.
I’ve been having pain in my right shoulder since last fall. This past March, I tore my subscapularis in my first round match in Guadalajara. Since then, I have tried every form of conservative treatment and rehab known to man, to no avail. So last week, I pulled the trigger and had arthroscopic surgery”.
