Canadian tennis player Eugenie Bouchard began her quest for victory at the Madrid Open by defeating Dayana Yastremska yesterday. She is now preparing to face Martina Trevisan in her next match. However, Bouchard has recently made headlines for an interesting tweet that she posted on Thursday afternoon.

Eugenie Bouchard is no stranger to success at the Madrid Open, having famously defeated Maria Sharapova in 2017. Her latest victory against Yastremska, who was previously accused of doping but cleared of any wrongdoing, has seemingly inspired Bouchard to make a statement. In her tweet, she captioned “There’s something about playing dopers in Madrid“.

After two hours of sharing the tweet it has been deleted from Twitter but the tennis fans were quick to react to Bouchard’s tweet, with many speculating whether she had been hacked or if she was intentionally stirring up controversy. Some fans welcomed the return of Bouchard’s trash-talking antics, which have previously made her a polarizing figure in the sport.

Eugenie Bouchard, a former Wimbledon runner-up, has ended her six-year drought at the Madrid Open with a hard-fought victory over Dayana Yastremska of Ukraine in a three-set match on Wednesday. Bouchard, who was once ranked as high as world number five but has since seen her ranking drop to 285, displayed her fighting spirit and determination as she battled back from a set down to secure a 6-7 (6/8), 6-2, 6-2 victory over her fellow qualifier.

The 29-year-old Canadian tennis star burst onto the scene in 2014, when she reached the final at Wimbledon and also made it to the semi-finals at both the Australian Open and the French Open that same year. However, her form has dipped in recent years, with Bouchard struggling to recapture the kind of performances that saw her become one of the most promising talents in the sport.

With her victory over Yastremska, Bouchard will be hoping to build some much-needed momentum and confidence as she continues her campaign at the Madrid Open. While she may no longer be among the top-ranked players in the world, Bouchard’s fighting spirit and determination to succeed make her a formidable opponent for anyone on the court.
