Eugenie Bouchard shares travel mishap as ‘nice man’ helps with her suitcase at Dallas airport only for the lock to mysteriously jam later

Eugenie Bouchard shared a travel mishap as she received help with her suitcase from a 'nice man' at the Dallas airport. However, upon reaching her hotel, she discovered that the code to unlock her suitcase was mysteriously changed.

Bouchard took to Instagram to share glimpses of her uncanny situation at the Dallas Fort Worth International Airport. While she traveled on the airport bus, one man helped her by holding onto her suitcase and not letting it roll away. She shared the image of the scenario and captioned it:

"This nice man offered to hold onto my suitcase so it wouldn’t roll on the airport bus to the rental car center."

Later, upon reaching her hotel, she revealed that the code to unlock her suitcase was mysteriously changed. Sharing an image of the suitcase, she captioned it:

"Got to the hotel and my lock didn’t unlock! Was it the nice man?? Or just @rimowa [suitcase brand] doing me dirty."

Further, she added:

"Took me 15 min of trying different combos. Finally worked with the middle number 1 number off my actual code. How does this happen 😭😭"

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