When Eugenie Bouchard arrived from Lyon a few days ago at the airport in Guadalajara, Mexico, she could hardly overlook the announcement of her appearance at the WTA Tour 250 tournament at the airport. Even if the last few years have been a bit thin for the Canadian, Bouchard still exudes a certain celebrity.
And meanwhile things seem to be looking up again on the tennis court. In Lyon Bouchard was able to reach the final with partner Olga Danikovic, in Guadalajara it is now so far in the individual. Bouchard defeated the Italian Elisabetta Cocciaretto 6: 2 and 7: 6 (2) in the semifinals and faces Sara Sorribes Tormo in the final. The Spaniard won against the number two of the tournament, Marie Bouzkova, 6: 3 and 7: 6 (3).
For Sorribes Tormo it is about the first tournament victory of her career, Bouchard won the title in Nuremberg in 2014. At the moment, the married top ten player is only 144th in the WTA world rankings.
