Retired Canadian tennis sensation Eugenie Bouchard is embracing a life of leisure and sunshine following her departure from professional tennis. The 31-year-old athlete, who officially retired in July 2025 after the National Bank Open in Montreal, is currently on a tropical vacation in the British Virgin Islands.
A Sibling Getaway in Paradise
Bouchard has been actively sharing glimpses of her holiday on social media, where she boasts over 2.3 million followers. The trip is a sibling vacation with her brother, Will Bouchard. "This is your sign to do a sibling vacation," she captioned a post featuring a video montage of their activities, which included golf, sailing, and various island adventures.
Notably absent were her two sisters—younger sister Charlotte and her twin, Beatrice, who is six minutes older. With a playful nod to her extensive vacation wardrobe, the implication from her posts is that the amount of swimsuits she packed might have left little room for additional travelers.
From the Court to the Poolside
While she has stepped away from the WTA Tour, Bouchard hasn't completely abandoned the sport. During her trip, she participated in the Little Dix Bay Tennis Cup at the secluded Rosewood Little Dix Bay resort. The event featured a tennis clinic, a Pro-Am tournament, and player meetups.
She was joined by fellow player Sloane Stephens, who humorously commented on one of Bouchard's Instagram posts, asking, "Why is there no capsized kayak footage?"
Her Instagram feed has been filled with picturesque beachside looks, showcasing a variety of swimwear from a red striped bikini to a chic white one-piece modeled beside an infinity pool overlooking the Caribbean waters.
Reflecting on a Stellar Career and New Beginnings
Eugenie Bouchard's tennis career was marked by early and spectacular success. At just 20 years old in 2014, she reached the Wimbledon final, catapulting her to international fame. Later that same year, she achieved a career-high ranking of World No. 5.
Despite her meteoric rise, sustaining that level of success in Grand Slam tournaments proved challenging in subsequent years, as she battled injuries and inconsistency. Her decision to retire was announced ahead of this year's National Bank Open in her hometown, where she played her final professional match.
Retirement, however, does not mean inactivity. Bouchard has transitioned to playing professional pickleball on the PPA Tour, where she currently holds a No. 9 ranking in singles. Her tropical vacation posts signal a new chapter of relaxation and enjoyment after years of intense competition on the global tennis stage.
