Since retiring from professional tennis earlier this year, Eugenie Bouchard has been enjoying her time away from the sport. She recently attended a party on a yacht in Miami, Florida, with friends and shared photos of her outfits, including a stunning bikini.

Bouchard took to social media and shared a series of pictures of herself from the yacht party. She was seen dressed in a beautiful leopard-print bikini, which she accessorized with what appeared to be a cardigan or shrug.
The former world No. 5 also posted pictures of herself in a Giselle sequin mini dress from Alice + Olivia by Stacey Bendet. She complemented the look with a Hermès Kelly 28 Elsom Sellier Gold bag. She also shared images of the gorgeous, large murals found in the lobby and hallway of the luxury Faena Hotel Miami Beach, along with other moments from her night out.
“always a good idea,” Bouchard captioned her Instagram post.

On the tennis side of things, Bouchard, who turned professional in 2009, announced her decision to retire from competitive tennis in July 2025. She retired from the sport after participating in the 2025 Canadian Open in Montreal.
This year, Bouchard played in only three tournaments: the 2025 Hall of Fame Open, the Citi DC Open, and the Canadian Open. In her final tournament, she received a wildcard entry into the main draw, where she defeated Emiliana Arango in the first round. She was then eliminated by Belinda Bencic in the second round, marking the end of her tennis career.
Bouchard Addresses How Playing Pickleball Helped Her After Retiring From Tennis
Earlier this year, while speaking to Forbes, Bouchard shared her thoughts on playing pickleball. She expressed that moving from tennis to pickleball had been a “nice transition.” She is ranked world No. 10 in women’s singles and No. 47 in women’s doubles in the Professional Pickleball Association (PPA) Tour rankings.
“Signing on to play in the PPA almost two years ago, I went from a full-time (pro) tennis player, to a part-time tennis player, on to pickleball in a way that was just a nice transition. It made the transition easy for me,” Bouchard said.
Bouchard mentioned that she was “glad” to be playing pickleball, as having nothing to do after retiring from tennis would have been challenging for her both “mentally and physically.”
“In hindsight, I’m glad it worked out this way, because I think going from 100 to zero is tough mentally and physically. So, it’s nice to get to travel, still have a job that requires me to be physically in shape, and to not quit (sports) cold turkey,” she added.
This year, Bouchard made her Pickleball Slam debut by teaming up with Andy Roddick, and the pair competed against Andre Agassi and Steffi Graf. She is scheduled to return for the Pickleball Slam in 2026. The event will take place at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Florida, featuring a prize purse of $1 million. Bouchard will partner with pickleball player Anna Leigh Waters and face Agassi and James Blake.
