Canadian tennis star Eugenie Bouchard celebrated her 30th birthday in style by learning something new. The Montreal-born, in a video on her social media platform Instagram, revealed that she learnt skiing on her 30th birthday.
"For my birthday this year I wanted to learn how to ski!" she wrote. Later, she posted a picture on Instagram as well with the caption “This is 30." In response to the caption, a host of stars responded differently but wished Bouchard on her big day.
"This is not what my 30 looks like. HBD!!," Jessica Pegula responded. "Happy Birthday Lovey," was written by Sloane Stephens. "Hotttt,” was the comment of fellow Canadian player Bianca Andreescu.
Bouchard recently became the first big-name player to openly announce that she will be playing both tennis and pickleball. The 30-year-old did not have a great outing on the court in 2023 where she could not qualify for the main round of any mega-event.
The 2014 Wimbledon finalist’s last appearance in a Grand Slam came way back in 2020 when she was eventually knocked out of the French Open after losing to the current world number one Poland’s Iga Swiatek in straight sets with a score of 6-3, 6-2.
