...ya and I reiterate: refusing to shake hands with your opponent shows a lack of class, and that's precisely why she's losing to lower ranked opponents - she's getting a lesson in humility.

Not shaking your opponents hand is just a pure lack of tact- sports and opponents have existed for centuries- you always show respect. You are not shaking someone's hand to wish them luck- you are just greeting them-I will never support her.

Sometimes it is not all about winning, it's about class. People will never remember you as how good you were, they will only remember you as disrespectful individual.

Shaking hands doesn’t equal becoming friends. It’s just a sign of respect and peace. Needs to mature

One more comment. She criticized Maria. Genie doesn't have the resume to even talk about Maria let alone criticize.

"Tennis had found a new golden girl..." What a laugh. This girl believed her own hype.

"she's still young" lol Serena &Maria won a slam when they're 17! Bye

Just wear a thong that's what u can do and nothing else

She is the rudest tennis player I have ever know.

DOUCHARD

Either she's too distracted by all the fame or it's because of the terrible decision to fire her original coach. Or both. But she's too talented to be losing this much.

Bouchard has made a lot of enemies in women tennis due to her attitude.

Not shaking hands...not cool.

Never heard of this girl... I understand if you don't want friends on the tour, but her decision to not shake her opponents hand in front of those cameras was a not so smart decision. That was foolish. She's still young..I'll give her time to get it right..lol

always be humble, you have nothing to lose!

What she doesn't realize, is that she is blowing away millions of dollars in potential endorsements with her attitude.

I think her game has always been overrated. I've never been a fan of hers but I think she could still have a good career. I see her more as a top 20 or top 30 player though. I think people were way too quick to jump on the Genie bandwagon. Even last year, she didn't do much outside of the grand slams. She won one small tournament and had a couple of other good runs in tournaments but that's about it. I read somewhere that in 9 or 10 of her tournaments last year she lost in her first round. That doesn't scream future tennis superstar to me. She needs to get that number down, not necessarily to 0, but 9-10 is way too high.

Not shaking the adversary's hand : I can't find any excuse for that.

Answered her critics in style today I see

yeah and now she is a complete flop no one even mentions her these days.

I think she's an interesting one because, although she is slumping somewhat, I never thought she was particularly good to begin with. Additionally, her actual results in 2014 (as in who she actually beat) were nothing special. Her best win was probably over an injured Halep (who is rather overrated herself) in the Wimbledon SF...big whoop.

she's no Anna, and definitely no Maria.....

One day, she is going to find out that we all need a friend regardless of what position we hold in the society. It's easy to make enemies but it is a lot harder to win a friend!

Imagine trying shake someone's hand and they say "I'm not people pleaser" 😒

It's unfortunate that she aspired after Maria's isolated, "I'm not friends with competition" attitude right around the same time that it was starting to fall out of favor with the public. Maria used to be respected and commended for her serious and mysterious demeanor, then social media happened and all of the sudden we want our personalities to be open as a book and friendly with everyone. Eugenie picked the wrong role model to base her career off of, you don't have to have to best friends with everyone on tour, but it helps to have some back up in the locker room.

What tournament has she won in her career again?

Why is her head/jaw the size of the Death Star?

2:15 how she answered to her critics?

I love feel-good stories on Genie "Back-in-the Bottle" Bouchard.

When something does not work you go somewhere back.

Currently ranked 78. She will never be a top ten player again. She's not serious enough and there are so many up and coming players. Looks are just not enough.

Cinderella gets her glass slipper contract cancelled.

Viewing this clip I actually feel sorry for her. Because she was pretty and was in Wimbledon final press wanted her to be next Maria. Unfortunately she just doesn't seem to have the game. Hope she finds it

I hope no tennis player shakes hands with her after the game.

WTA is in trouble, the only big draws are Serena and Maria and now Maria will be facing a ban. Serena can't play forever, there is no one interesting after those two really. Think WTA was counting on Eugenie but she's too full of herself and playing like crap now.

Maybe one day she will grow up.

Ok...I like Genie but don't like that she would not shake the opponent's hand. That's totally unacceptable and poor sportsmanship. I hope whoever is on her team talk to her and advise her to do so. No one is shaking her hand to be her friend. It is just proper courtesy...sheesh!

If someone behaves poorly and then ppl call them on their shit, you can't label them as "haters" darling. Again the dismissive arrogance that assumes ppl are motivated by jealousy or envy rather than the moral conviction to correct ppl who need correcting.

Bouchad's path seems similar to Sharapova - marketable face w. tennis skills

you don't compete too make friends you compete too win

The rogers cup she lost to rogers

when she rejected that handshake her tennis career ended .... those who humble themselves will be exalted and those who exalt themselves will be humiliated!!

My god, i thought that word it was only for teenagers.

She sucks for the amount of attention she gets. I don't find her pretty, but obviously the media have a thing about blonde bimbos who can hold a tennis racquet. Of course, she's in the Top 100 on the WTA, which means she's still one of the best tennis players in the world, which is quite an accomplishment. But there are so many better players or player who are at least on par talent-wise and especially results-wise, yet the WTA itself as well as countless media outlets continue to give this snobby girl press. If she wins a match she's "starting her comeback". If she loses, it's a tale of hard luck and lingering injuries or self-doubt. Well every player has wins and losses and 99% don't get the coverage or endorsements she does. I don't hate her as a person, though I don't find her personality endearing at all and I would probably not like her much in person. But that's beside the point. If she were humble and more focused, and shunned media exposure until (if) her came improved, I'd respect that a lot more than what she does now, which is to make it seem as though she's been a victim of a fickle press. Yes, in a way she has...but don't forget Genie it was the press that made you in the first place. One good year - 2014 - only lasts so long in the minds of tennis fans and since she's never won a grand slam final, been #1, or done anything terribly remarkable, I don't see her being much different from Kournikova. That is, she's a good athlete, has had admittedly more success in singles than Kournikova did but not as much in doubles, and is known mostly for her looks and for some tragic "fall" which is no one's fault but her own. Meanwhile, other players are out there grinding week in and week out to produce results, and not getting nearly the coverage for it. If Genie fans want to know why many of us dislike her or at least the hoopla surrounding her, THAT'S the reason. We're not irrational "haters" ...actual tennis fans like myself who appreciate watching skilled players like Angie, Aga, Garbine, Petra, and so on play masterfully out there and not get a fraction of the attention this annoying chick gets is what we "hate".

1:49 say what?

I don’t get this type of attitude to not have friends on the tour.. why not have any? You are travelling the world around 2/3 of the year and you meet them every time. Obviously when you play, you play for win, but we are intellectual individuals and can make the difference between private time and work.

When she reached the final its just a fluke, clearly after that luck there was no follow up. She flirts more than playing serious tennis. We don't hate you Bouchard, we just want to see serious commitments to the sports. Im a Canadian too, love to see one day you raise that trophy.

She has no interest in being a successful tennis player. She just wants to be a celebrity. Currently #53 in WTA rankings.

then the winning stopped...why? cause most of them just aint that good except for themselves...their mom and their coach.

if i were bouchard i would just be humble and modest. her arrogance is just going to put her down. people are going to hate but the more she will be hate with her attitude. sorry she has not made a name for herself and she is acting up like she is better than anybody. get your name in the grandslams first then u can be arrogant right now be humble

She's suing the USTA. Eugenie you had a chance for redemption and you just threw it as far away as you possibly could.

and that Romanian girl defeated her, btw

Amassed a fortune b4 her time. Her time will never b. Winning Grand SlamS and being a real person draws widespread community respect. Sheza planet away from this.

Don't count out humility. ;) @ KombatJunky

Genie I'm so glad ur back and you are 100 percent correct. Have a fantastic year. Thank You. The screaming maniacs should be gone gone that has nothing to do with quality tennis Hope you prove us right. Ignore the a screaming lunacy IT Isn't tennis

This didn't age well. Kind of like her tennis game.

Prima-donna.

She's done. Her game can't hurt anyone.

'Such a pity, a girl so pretty, with an ugly heart'- G.R.L

She's not a people 'pleaser'???? It's called being a gracious sports'woman'ship is all it is. Genie hasn't shown to the tennis world that she can win a grand slam. I hope she can prove us wrong.

Shes not sport she should be ban from tennis...refusing shake hands from ur opponent is an act of un sportmanship

cant believe she has haters ! they should leave this world😂😂😂

OK to all these nasty low lives on here that are putting hate on this girl!! know this!! what have you done with your lives. In 2014 this young lady made all four Grand Slam Semi - Finals in one year and a Finalist at Wimbledon. In 2014 she was a Semi - Finalist at the Australian Open, Semi Finalist at the French Open, Runner Up at Wimbledon and again a Semi - Finalist at the US open. Even though she has struggled to make it back when she was world no.4 she is still inside the top 50 or top 40 and has been able to keep in the top WTA rankings for the last 5 year's. Those of you who have no idea how hard and tough it is to stay inside the top 50 these days in both men's and women's tennis should not be commenting on this as not one of you has a clue of what your talking about. she may not be true champion stuff!! but she is still a very successful player!!. some player's who have been on the circuit for the last ten year's would love to make one Grand Slam Semi Final let alone a Final! And she has been a Semi Finalist in all four slams and a Wimbledon Final. Get Educated haters!! right now your the one's making your selves look as pathetic as you are ignorant of tennis.

She can not play. She has terrible personality.

1 coment OMG

Eugenie - please have some compasion for these haters - they have no life and use KZfaq and social media to get attention. You are doing fine just keep working and do not pay attention to the trolls - they are really screwed up.

thats what she gets, when saying something to the goddess of tennis maria sharapova....

P

Love your no.

wrong prediction from expert, she was never a NEW GOLDEN GIRL, she was actually a disgrace for the sport.

she is the most over-hyped tennis player in WTA. Having scored poorly and lost to so many virtually unknown players, she should let her racket do the talking instead.

She used to play great and to do things with her tennis, what happened to her to play so bad these days.! Oh yeah modeling, pics, cat walks bye bye tennis the curse for all of the gorgeous ladies and more..!

I mean, I get it. There's tons of things I don't want to do but feel compelled to do because of societal norms. And maybe some day, I'll get to ignore all of that and do what I want. But not when I'm in my 20s. Sorry, you haven't lived long enough and experienced enough hardship yet to be a curmudgeon.

Get your intensity back on! Play relax but strong. Good Look & Go get it!

just get a grandslam> lol!!!

Most overrated tennis player currently. All she does is lose in the 1st round but shes still relevant because she hot and and teases people on IG.

Thats all you wanna do, turn arround and flirt.,You dont want to have friends with other players, you don't even have Grand Slam or any of the small tournament win to say that.,You're a totally drama queen.

Bouchard is a boy, steroids do wanders!

At least Ms. Bouchard has game, and still has a megabright future in Tennis. This is by no means Anna Kournikova action here.

Eugenie Bouchard Best. Nadal and Eugenie Bouchard my Favourite tennis player

👎👎

It's simply her sophomore slump year. It was predicted and is accurate. She has also been predicted to be the face of tennis and that has been accurate. She has been predicted as the next IT girl of tennis. That will come too. She is being predicted to be the next number 1 player in the world. That will come too. New coach means new style of play. The new style takes time and you can see it slowly coming into her game. With her original style and the new style she will be very tough to beat. 2016 Bouchard will break through again and will be the new #1 player in the world. Many of us were obnoxious, arrogant and ignorant at 21 years old too. Haters no need to be self righteous. Your not perfect either! GENIE YOUR THE BEST!!!

She is so Basic

she has a man jaw

GENIE WILL SIGN YOU UP FOR THE 100 MAN BUKKAKE CHALLENGE SWALLOW EVERY LOAD AND IT WILL BUILD UP YOUR STAMINA

Annoyingly cute

She’s so foul

good for her to fix her mind. God hates proudy persons, i can't see any chance to see get her better no matter how hard she works but until after repentance and public apology.

It was a treat to see Kvitova demolish her at Wimbledon. Regardless, she will always be Big Chin Genie to me ,like my song says. Some people are likable and some are not. Kim Clijsters is a great person and a fine tennis player. Big Chin Genie is neither.

Never really had the passion or temperament to be a champion .

What a beauty

one of the most beautiful women tennis players ever to have weild the racquet.i would put Genie in top 3.

I love Eugenie Bouchard 😃 😃 😃 😃 😃 😃 😃 😃 😃

but she just took out the world number two. she's making a comeback

Eugénie Butchard.

She is a beautiful woman. Gotta lot of haters with that.

Eugenie Bouchard from Westmount in Montreal, is and will always be a choker when it comes to being a good tennis player.. i think she should concentrate on her tennis.. or go get her picture taken on Playboy magazine... she thinks she is better than everybody else on the court but has not proved it yet .. nor will she...

win or lose, i love genie!

She has talent - too bad she has no class.

Amassed a fortune b4 her time. Her time will never b. Winning Grand SlamS and being a real person draws widespread community respect. Sheza planet away from this.
