Eugenie Bouchard, the Canadian tennis star best known for reaching the Wimbledon final in 2014, has officially announced her retirement from professional tennis. The 31-year-old confirmed the decision ahead of the 2025 National Bank Open in Montreal, where she played her final singles match. Citing a desire to finish her career at home, Bouchard stated: 'You'll know when it's time. For me, it's now'.

From Breakthrough Star to Top 5 in the World

Bouchard made her international breakthrough in 2014, when she reached the Wimbledon final and the semi-finals of both the Australian Open and French Open. That same year, she achieved a career-high WTA singles ranking of world No. 5, becoming the first Canadian to reach a Grand Slam singles final.

She was named WTA Newcomer of the Year in 2013 and Most Improved Player in 2014. Her performances were credited with helping raise the profile of tennis in Canada, particularly for women in sport.

Career Setbacks and Ranking Decline

Following her meteoric rise, Bouchard experienced a decline in form that was largely attributed to injuries, like concussion sustained at the US Open in 2015, and inconsistency on court. By 2016, she had fallen outside the top 50, and in the years that followed, struggled to maintain momentum on the WTA tour.

Bouchard shifted her focus in later years, participating in occasional doubles events and media work. Prior to retirement, her WTA singles ranking had dropped outside the top 250, marking a sharp contrast from her early dominance. According to WTA Tennis, her ranking as of writing is at 1062.

Farewell Matches and Montreal Send-Off

Bouchard's final appearance on the WTA Tour took place at the National Bank Open in Montreal, where she defeated Emiliana Arango in the first round, 6-4, 2-6, 6-2, marking an emotional victory in front of her home crowd.

Earlier, she returned to action at the Hall of Fame Open in Newport, competing in singles and reaching the doubles quarter-finals alongside Olivia Lincer. At the Citi DC Open, she partnered with Clervie Ngounoue but was defeated by Venus Williams and Hailey Baptiste.

Bouchard described her retirement as 'a celebration, not a funeral', framing the occasion as a fitting conclusion to her career.

Net Worth and Career Earnings

Despite her recent absence from the spotlight on court, Bouchard's net worth has continued to grow. As of 2025, her estimated net worth stands at around $10 million, with earnings from endorsements, broadcasting and social media partnerships.

She has held sponsorship deals with major brands including Nike and Coca-Cola, and also worked as a tennis commentator for various networks. Her marketability has remained strong, aided by her large social media following and frequent appearances in sports and lifestyle media.

Public Attention and Relationship Status

Bouchard has consistently attracted attention beyond tennis, often trending online for her personal life. In recent years, she was romantically linked to NFL quarterback Mason Rudolph, though the relationship reportedly ended in 2023.

As of July 2025, Bouchard has not confirmed a new boyfriend, but speculation surrounding her dating life remains a frequent topic among fans. She maintains an active online presence with over two million followers across platforms.
