"Hahaha even for 3 days without hitting a ball?"

The Canadian tennis and pickleball star even reacted to multiple memes about trade posted on Instagram.

In other news, the 31-year-old athlete is fresh off of a high-profile pickleball exhibition event. She played at the Pickleball Slam 3 where she partnered with former tennis star Andy Roddick. They played against the defending champions and tennis legends Andre Agassi and Steffi Graf, who ended up winning.

Bouchard and Roddick were joined by John Isner while Agassi and Graf were joined by Mardy Fish. The former top-5 player’s last tennis outing dates back to 2024 during the qualifiers of that year's Canadian Open, where she ended up losing to Moyuka Uchijima.
