Tennis babe Bouchard sets pulses racing in figure-hugging Coachella outfits

Tennis star Genie Bouchard has got her Instagram followers going by posting pictures of herself enjoying her time at Coachella Festival.

Bouchard, 28, is a former Junior Wimbledon champion and in 2014 became the first player to represent Canada in a Grand Slam final in the female event at SW19. She finished runner-up, after losing to Petra Kvitova in straight sets.

That proved a breakthrough year for her, also reaching the semi-finals of the Australian and French Open tournaments. In the build-up to Roland Garros, she captured her only WTA title to date, beating Karolina Pliskova to claim the Nurnberger Versicherungscup title.

After recent shoulder problems, Bouchard has been seldom seen on court as late, but continues to boast a large following on social media. Last month, she uploaded bikini pics following her reported split from NFL quarterback Mason Rudolph.

Only last week, she took to Instagram to share a snap of herself alongside Manchester United and England legend David Beckham after meeting him in a swanky restaurant in Miami. And now, her latest posts have again proved popular as she enjoys the music festival in California.

On Monday, she showed off her figure in a tight-fitted outfit, and her 2.1 million Instagram followers appeared to approve. As of Tuesday morning, the post had already received more than 43,000 likes.

Bouchard had previously engaged with her online audience, with a picture of her in a catchy green outfit enjoying herself at the first night festival. Within hours, that post had in excess of 68,000 likes. She captioned her post herself: "Night 1 Coachella", alongside a green heart emoji.

Musician Ryan Sheperd was one of many high profile stars to reply, saying "Big Coachella energy." Many fans also asked if the posts were confirmation she has retired from tennis, although the former world No 5 has recent played an exhibition event in America.

She has four times been named Canadian Tennis play of the Year, and back in 2013 was crowned WTA Newcomer of the Year. However, she has not made the last-eight of a Slam since the US Open in 2014.
