Canadian Tennis Beauty Eugenie Bouchard Goes Against Idol Roger Federer?s 8-Year-Old Wimbledon Statement Urging the Organizers to Change Its Conventional Rules

Wimbledon Championships is as much about fashion as it is about the play. Players have limited options, constraining them to only white, from undergarments to their actual outfits. Many Tennis stars expressed their concerns against the code. While some are neutral, some slammed the dress code, and some loved it.

The Grass Slam received criticism and love from Roger Federer to Eugenie Bouchard. The majority is against the code and have found ways to stand out by including color in their outfits. It only led to the enforcement of stricter codes. Eugenie Bouchard, who idolizes Roger Federer, differed with him when it came to the dress code of Wimbledon.

How did Genie go against Federer?

The attitude and game of Federer inspired many players, and Eugenie Bouchard was one of them. Perhaps she is one of very few whose opinion concerning the Whites of Wimbledon stood out. Legends like Serena Williams, Maria Sharapova, and Martina Navratilova made their attempts at tweaking the dress code but failed against the rules. They all must have felt that winning a Grand Slam is easier than changing the dress code at Wimbledon.

Contrasting all of them, Genie revealed that she loved playing in white. Taking to her Instagram story, Genie revealed, “We only have to wear all white at Wimbledon but I think all white looks so nice on the grass that I wanted to wear it at all my grass events??.”

?The Canadian is one of the favorites at Wimbledon as she achieved her career-high win percentage in the Grass Slam. Even the ‘Swiss Maestro’ holds the record of winning more Wimbledon Slams, but they both are polar opposites in their views of dressing for Wimbledon.

The dress code that made Ice Cool Roger Federer heat up

‘The Swiss Maestro’ never leaves a millimeter trace of his rage. All things around the world combined failed to do so, but Wimbledon has achieved it. The newly retired player once expressed his displeasure against the codes becoming stricter and how they haven’t evolved since 1950.

In a post-match conference in 2015 Wimbledon, the former first seed irked, “It’s all white, we’re all for it. We get that. I just find it quite extreme to what extent it’s gotten to white. We’re talking white like it was in the 1950s. If you look at the pictures, then it was all white. The thing is, when I was watching on TV, I still have the pictures in my mind where? Edberg and? Becker and all those guys, they had more color. There were iconic T?shirts, iconic moments, I thought.”

The Swiss star added color to his outfit by wearing shoes with orange soles in 2013. He received backlash from the All-England Club, and his shoes were banned from the tournament. Two years after this incident, he broke his silence and expressed his disapproval of All-White.

Irrespective of all these, there is now more excitement surrounding the statement attires that players try to make, and of course, who beats whom!?
