Even when I was much younger, whatever I did, I wanted to do it to the best of my abilities. When I came home from school, I would be the one doing my homework while my siblings would be watching TV and putting it off until later. Eugenie Bouchard Read Quote
I have very vivid dreams, and often – this happens to me at least a few times a week – I don’t know if something happened in real life or in a dream. I’m like, ‘Mom, did this neighbor come over, or was it a dream?’ And she’s like, ‘No, what are you talking about?’ Eugenie Bouchard Read Quote
If you’re playing someone you care about, it’s tough, and I don’t want to be in that situation. We are playing big matches for big points and prize money, and I take it very seriously. I relax when I’m outside tennis. Eugenie Bouchard Read Quote
I’m very hard on myself. Sometimes too hard on myself. When I lost in the Wimbledon finals, I was so sad, I cried. I had the runner-up trophy! It’s still a great accomplishment, but I was so mad. Eugenie Bouchard Read Quote
I don’t really think dreams have real meaning. Some people believe in that. I just think it’s your brain, after a day of crazy random pieces of information jumbled together, creating interesting stories. I just view it as entertainment. Eugenie Bouchard Read Quote
I did not have a normal life. I’d be training when my sister would be at birthday parties and sleepovers. I finished high school by correspondence, basically working two full-time jobs. The last years were very, very tough. But I was willing to do that. It’s all about sacrifice. Eugenie Bouchard Read Quote
I’ve never really focused on my ranking per se because it’s out of my control. I try and do the right thing each week, and the ranking will look after itself. Eugenie Bouchard Read Quote
I’m not a cooking person, so there’s not much in the fridge. On the rare occasion that I do cook, I make myself breakfast. Eggs are my go-to in the morning for some protein. Orange juice as well. You have to start your day off with that. Eugenie Bouchard Read Quote
