Eugenie Bouchard On Tennis Resuming
In a recent appearance on the Megaphone podcast, Eugenie Bouchard was asked many questions. One of those questions was how she feels about the tennis season resuming in 2020. The Canadia star replied by saying,
“Yes, I am super comfortable because I know that I will take the precautions that I need to. Hopefully, we can trust that everyone else will at the events and if the events are well-run, I don’t think there is too much to be worried about. Anything can happen, we all know that but if we do everything we need to then we give ourselves the best chance. So, it’s important to restart the tennis season so that we get our jobs back.”
The Canadian star has already started playing exhibition events like the World Team Tennis to prepare herself for when the WTA Tour returns. Every tennis fan is waiting to see her play professional tennis again but she hasn’t specified which events she is going to be playing.
