Eugenie Bouchard fell to Evgeniya Rodina 7-6(2) 6-1 in the first round of the US Open and has now failed to make it past the second round of her last eight tournaments, starting with a second-round exit at Roland Garros.
The world No.76 Bouchard looked stunning in the matte silver Nike Fall Slam NYC Dress, but her performance was way less appealing than her looks, as the Canadian lost the first set by melting away in the tiebreak, in which she handed Rodina as many as five unforced errors, while in the second set her winners-to-unforced-errors differential was -12, compared to Rodina’s 0.
