Genie Bouchard shares Bianca Andreescu's dislike of warm-up sessions - "Omg that's the worst"

Canadian tennis star Bianca Andreescu recently opened up on her dislike for warm-up sessions before practice, and her sentiments were echoed by compatriot Eugenie Bouchard.

The 2019 US Open shared a picture on social media where she was seen on a grass court wearing a white tennis dress. Andreescu is coming off a third round Wimbledon loss to eventual runner-up Jasmine Paolini, although the unseeded Andreescu did defeat 26th seed Linda Noskova in the second round.

Andreescu not fond of warm-up sessions

The former World No.4 did not seem too pleased with the proceedings on grass, as she posted the Instagram picture with a rather amusing caption.

"Caption thisss, When coach says “just a warm-up” but you’re already out of breath 😂," wrote Andreescu.

After the image made rounds on social media, Bouchard chimed in, stating she also was not a fan of warm-up sessions before practice.

"Omg that’s the worst. Especially when it’s the physical warm up to the warm up," responded Bouchard.

The 30-year old recently joined the Professional Pickleball Association in September last year. Although her appearances on the tennis court have been few and far between, Bouchard stated she has not entirely given up on tennis. Her most recent match was in the qualifiers of an ITF event in May, and her prolonged absence has seen her ranking plummet to World No.521.
