Just one month ago, Eugenie Bouchard played competitive tennis for the first time since March 2021. At the 125K Vancouver tournament, she lost in the first round to world no. 166 Arianne Hartono, and at the Flushing Meadows tournament, she lost in the second qualifying round to rising talent Linda Noskova, who is ranked 109th. The former Wimbledon finalist has endured a number of injuries over the years, and in 2021 she was forced to take a 17-month layoff in order to recover from shoulder surgery. It was a big shame because, in her eighth career final and after showing signs of a comeback, she finished second in Guadalajara.
Before a few months ago, Joanne Zuger had never even won a qualifying match at a regular WTA tournament. The 21-year-old put an end to the wait on the clay courts of Hamburg, Germany, against Bernarda Pera in the second round after shocking Wimbledon quarterfinalist Jule Niemeier in three sets. Her biggest career victory in terms of rankings came from the victory over the German. The Swiss player moved up from 570th in January 2021 to break the top 200 thanks to seven W60 quarterfinal-or-better finishes in this time, most notably in Collonge-Bellerive on home soil this month.
Eugenie Bouchard and Joanne Zuger are scheduled to face each other in the round of 32 of the 2022 WTA Chennai Open on Monday, September 12. The tournament is scheduled to begin on September 12 and end on September 18.
