“I thought she a tik toker,” Tennis Twitter takes low-blows on Genie Bouchard’s comeback at the Chennai Open
Genie Bouchard
Genie Bouchard whose tennis career has taken a severe toll for some time now magically has made a comeback at the ongoing Chennai Open by securing her spot in the round of 16. Nevertheless, fans and the tennis community seem to have taken an unusual oath of mocking the Canadian professional regardless.
Bouchard’s previous endeavor at the US Open came down in flames when she lost in the qualifiers round to Linda Noskova with a humiliating score of 6-2, 6-3. WTA’s tweet upon congratulating the 28-year-old on her first major win since 2021 backfired when several fans were witnessed poking fun at her saying “I thought she a tik toker.”
“I thought she retired,” Tennis Twitter makes a sport of Genie Bouchard’s first-round win
Genie Bouchard, who set the record for the first Canadian-born player to ever reach a Grand Slam final in WTA singles. She made her maiden Slam finals at Wimbledon 2014 where she lost to the Czech tennis professional and former world No. 2 Petra Kvitova.
Despite recent efforts, Genie has been unable to produce any significant results on her tour since 2021 which took a change in direction when the loss in stardom professional made her comeback. Nevertheless, her efforts seem to be lacking a majority of support from fans on account of her continuous mocking.
Here are some of the back-lashing Twitter reactions recorded:
Genie Bouchard has constantly compromised herself whilst being under a microscopic radar with her inability to deliver on her performance notably in any major championships. At the recently held WTA 125k Vancouver, Canada, which is a part of the Challenger Women, the Canadian was ousted in the round of 32 by Arianne Hartono with a humiliating score of 6-2, 6-2.
Often in the past, the global tennis community has criticized her for not taking the game seriously and sparing views on her as such, they feel it might be highly likely for the 28-year-old to consider stepping off the court and trying her fortune someplace else because her tennis results certainly aren’t working in her favor.
