"What a cute welcome": Bouchard shares messages left in hotel room on Madrid arrival

Eugenie Bouchard received a warm welcome upon her arrival in Madrid.

Upon arriving at the hotel where she will be staying in Madrid, the Canadian received the support of the staff, following her difficult return to the tour after an injury. Bouchard had to undergo surgery that kept her off the courts for 17 months, and since her return, she has not had the best results.

In 2023, she has participated in four tournaments, was eliminated in the qualifying rounds of the Australian Open and ASB Classic, as well as reaching the round of 16 in the ITF Oeiras Ladies Open in Portugal and the WTA 250 Copa Colsanitas in Colombia. She found messages of support on her bathroom mirror at the hotel.

“What a cute welcome!" Bouchard wrote on her Instagram.

In her debut at the Madrid Open, Bouchard will play against the Spanish player Sara Sorribes Tormo in the first round of the qualifying.
