Canada’s Bouchard loses in qualifying at National Bank Open in Montreal
In a three-set duel, hometown favourite Eugenie Bouchard had some good moments but not enough to book a ticket to the second round of the National Bank Open women’s singles qualifiers on Saturday .
After giving hope to the spectators by equalizing the match at one set each, Bouchard lost her composure in the third against a highly respectable opponent who reached the Australia Open final in 2022. Bouchard started the first set well by breaking Collins’s serve, but that turned out to be her only positive moment in that set. Making numerous errors, Bouchard conceded the next six games.
With Collins serving, Bouchard first handled a drop shot well. Using a smooth movement, she reached the ball and executed a crosscourt backhand to earn herself a breakpoint. Later, 18-year-old Marina Stakusic of Mississauga, Ont., ranked 414th in the world with only seven career matches at the WTA level, came close to causing an upset against American Alycia Parks, the 48th-ranked player in the world.
