Canadian tennis star Eugenie Bouchard had a fun time as most of us struggle with the Coronavirus quarantine. She agreed to go on a date with a fan who made the most bizarre requests that you could think of.

Interestingly, Bouchard had written on Twitter last month that the quarantine would be a lot more fun if she had a boyfriend. As was expected, this led to a whole list of tennis fans handing out their resumes to the player. Bouchard is considered by many to be one of the most attractive tennis players out there.

However, a fan finally got the chance to land a date with Bouchard during an Instagram live interview that she was a part of. Eugenie had gone live on Instagram with journalist Allie LaForce. What followed was a lot of fun.

What happened in the Instagram live session which featured Eugenie Bouchard? 

Eugenie was offered a fun date deal. Comedian Bob Menery offered £400 in exchange for a date with Bouchard. Laforce hilariously replied asking for a £3000 fee for paying the bill of the hospital staff’s food requirements.

“You’re [LaForce] also helping me, being a matchmaker for me because I clearly need one.”

Bouchard agreed to the offer –

“I agreed, yes, of course. I want to be part of this.”

However, the fun was not over yet. Bob hilariously replied with the offer of an extra £800 if Bouchard used a British accent on the date.

A reluctant Bouchard agreed to the offer for the sake of charity –

“I’m going to say yes but I have no skill whatsoever in imitating accents.”

Charity is helpful in these times no matter the form in which it apparently comes.
