Genie Bouchard is a force to be reckoned with both on and off the field. The tennis pro and two-time SI Swimsuit model made her magazine debut in 2017 when she posed for photographer Emmanuelle Hauguel. Turks and Caicos.

Bouchard, who turned professional in 2009, returned to the tennis court last August after being away from her sport for almost a year and a half due to injury. He competed in the Odlum Brown VanOpen in his native Canada. The 2014 Wimbledon runner-up also participated in the opening of the World Tennis League held in Dubai in December.

The athlete appeared back-to-back in the SI Swimsuit Issue during her trip Aruba in 18, where James Macari snapped his photo.

“Some of the positions are really physical, some of them I’m lying on my back pushing my hips up with one leg, trying to balance… there’s a war,” Bouchard was joking of the physicality of his sophomore year of photography.

She added that working with Macari was wonderful because he guided her in certain poses throughout the shoot.

“I definitely feel a lot more comfortable this time,” Bouchard added. “I feel like I can be myself and just try to have fun and work hard because it’s very hard work.”
