This season is when tennis players can rest and prepare for the year ahead. Eugenie Bouchard is no stranger to this. Amidst the lull of the off-season, the 29-year-old Canadian player took some time off and enjoyed a small trip to one of the heavens on earth, Necker Island.

She made full use of her time at a paradise for all the tennis players. However, she was not alone. She was accompanied by the owner of the island, Richard Branson himself. Not only did the two spend some quality time there, but they also spent some great hours on the tennis courts.

In her recent Instagram stories, Eugenie Bouchard shared glimpses of her off-season escapades on the famous Necker Island, owned by none other than the business tycoon Richard Branson himself. Known for its lush greeneries and scenic views, this picturesque retreat became the playground for Bouchard and Branson, as seen in her recent Instagram stories where the duo engaged in tennis-related activities.

Despite their enjoyment, Bouchard humorously shared their defeat in a match. The Necker Island’s allure as a tennis paradise during the off-season provided Bouchard with a unique opportunity to enjoy her time off the tennis courts and indulge in some tennis action.

Thus, enjoying her time off the tennis courts, Eugenie Bouchard got to engage in a tennis session with the business great Branson. Interestingly, he is known to organize the world’s sexiest tennis tournament on his island, and Bouchard is no stranger to it. She has been a part of the tournament as well.
