Bouchard's Losing Streak: 12, and Counting


Genie Bouchard’s losing streak was stretched to 12 on Monday at the US Open, but the former World No.5 sees some bright spots in her lost season: She can start thinking about next year, and that is a luxury that not many tennis players can afford.

“I can’t wait to win a match,” Bouchard said, according to Tom Tebbut of Tennis Canada. “I’m sick of losing.”

Bouchard, who is now working with Jorge Todero of Argentina, says that her emphasis is going to be on getting stronger physical. “My coach told me that we’re kind of using the rest of this year as time to prepare for next year,” she said. “I’m obviously still going to play tournaments this year but I’m going to try to really work physically. I think that’s lacking a little bit right now. Keeping working on my game, add tools and start next year really strong.”

The Canadian will have to rely on wild cards and use challengers to pick up her ranking. She’s slated to drop to about 146 in the WTA rankings after the US Open.
