Apart from being an individual’s sport, tennis is also unbending when it comes to physical compatibility. Inarguably, physical fitness is one of the essential factors in surviving on the Tour for a longer duration.

“It makes me appreciate the chances I do get to play more. So, I’m training, and as soon as I’m ready, I’ll be out there and more motivated than ever,” Bouchard concluded.
