Eugenie Bouchard gives telling reaction to Emma Raducanu struggles after similar experience

Emma Raducanu appears to be feeling the pressure right now as persistent injuries have plunged her Wimbledon into doubt, but she has received some sympathy from Canadian Eugenie Bouchard.

The 29-year-old enjoyed a meteoric rise to Tennis superstardom, much like Raducanu, and has since admitted there are parallels between herself and the British talent. Bouchard is a Wimbledon runner-up and a former world number five, but regular injuries, particularly with her shoulder, curtailed an important stage of development.

Nowadays, Bouchard is ranked number 285 and has discussed Raducanu's recent issues by comparing them to similar experiences of her own. The Canadian touched on the theory that the former US Open champion is making the same mistake she did by concentrating too much on commercial opportunities.
