More than two years after Eugenie Bouchard fell and hit her head at the United States Open, her lawyers will be in federal court Tuesday in Brooklyn for the start of jury selection in her trial against the United States Tennis Association.
Bouchard sued the U.S.T.A. in 2015, about six weeks after she withdrew from the singles, doubles and mixed doubles events at the U.S. Open because of a concussion she said she had sustained after slipping in the trainers’ room late on Sept. 4. Bouchard blamed her injury on a cleaning fluid applied to the floor in the dimly lit room.
