Eugenie Bouchard wins again as tennis comeback continues

Eugenie Bouchard continued her return to form with a straight sets win against India’s Karman Thandi in Chennai. 

Bouchard won her first professional singles match in 18 months earlier this week and backed up her victory with another impressive display against the crowd favourite. 

The Canadian was a break down in the second set, but recovered to claim a 6-2 7-6 win and reach the quarter-finals. 

Since bursting onto the scene as a youngster, Bouchard has enjoyed a difficult time and has not featured in a major competition since the French Open in 2020. 

Yet, the Canadian will take confidence from her recent performances and will be desperate to carry on her run in Chennai as she bids to climb back up the rankings. 

Is this the start of a resurgence for the former tennis prodigy? It’s perhaps too soon to say. But sometimes, all it takes is belief and the Canadian has proven in the past that she has the talent.
