Genie Bouchard reunites with twin sister, celebrate birthday together for first time in eight years

Former World No. 5 Eugenie Bouchard recently celebrated her 29th birthday with her twin sister Beatrice. The sisters were named after Prince Andrew's daughters, Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice of York.

Bouchard rose to fame in 2014, a year that was by far the most successful of her career. In the 2014 season, Bouchard reached the semifinals of the Australian Open as well as the French Open. She then etched her name in the record books of Canadian tennis history by becoming the first Canadian-born player to represent Canada in the final of a Grand Slam tournament, the 2014 Wimbledon Championships. However, she failed to win the coveted title, losing to Petra Kvitova in straight sets.
