Eugenie Bouchard was once one of the best tennis players in the world. The Canadian reached the fifth position in the WTA rankings in 2014. Although her career has slowed down recently, she remains active on social media. She recently posted a picture from a party that caused quite a stir.

Eugenie Bouchard is a well-known tennis player. Her greatest achievement was reaching the Wimbledon final in 2014. In October 2014, she was ranked as high as fifth in the world WTA rankings.

Recently, there has been much talk about her moving from classic tennis to another sport - pickleball. It's a combination of tennis, table tennis, and badminton.

Eugenie Bouchard no longer focuses solely on sports. The tennis player is also thriving as a model and influencer. The 30-year-old eagerly shares her life on social media.

Now she has presented her photo from the party. She had a great time there and posted photos online showing her drinking alcohol. Immediately after drinking, she grimaced and quickly had to drink another beverage.

Fans have complaints about the tennis player

Fans often accuse her of focusing too much on activities outside of sports. The media hailed Bouchard as one of the world's most beautiful tennis players; she has combined her tennis career with work as a model and influencer for several years.

As the Canadian mentioned in an interview with "The Times" she does not understand the criticism directed at her.

I felt like I was being shoved into a box, like you can’t do anything besides tennis. I was like, tennis has given me opportunities to explore the fashion world, TV and all these other things. Why would I say no? - she wonders.
