Every other ATP star is currently gearing up either for the Desert Smash or for the Indian Wells tournament.
While everyone has their slot reserved for matches, Rafael Nadal and Carlos Alcaraz are set to step out of the ATP-organized events for a day to play against each other at the Netflix slam.
Out of all the tennis entities who are on the list of being around the court, Eugenie Bouchard‘s name wasn’t heard at all.
Recently, WTA star Eugenie Bouchard shared an update on Instagram that directly hinted at her presence in the highly anticipated event. Is she going to be there?
Tennis fans are currently buzzing with excitement as the highly anticipated Netflix Slam approaches. With Rafael Nadal and Carlos Alcaraz set to face off in an exhibition match, the fans are still wondering what surprises await.
Right before the start of it, the excitement reached new heights when the Canadian tennis star Eugenie Bouchard shared two Instagram stories hinting at a surprise appearance at the event.
Bouchard’s Instagram story included pictures of the same location where the Netflix Slam will take place. This sparked great speculation in the minds of the fans. While Bouchard’s exact role in the event still remains unclear, her presence could surely add an extra element of excitement to the already anticipated show.
The Netflix Slam, which is set to be streamed live on Netflix, will be featuring an impressive broadcast team including tennis legends such as Andre Agassi, Andy Roddick, and Jim Courier. Tune in on Sunday, March 3, at 3:30 pm ET/12:30 pm PT to catch all the action and see if Eugenie Bouchard makes a surprise appearance alongside Nadal and Alcaraz.
While Eugenie Bouchard dropped a hint to raise speculation about her presence at the match between Carlos Alcaraz and Rafael Nadal, she also has a match fixed for herself. Almost a month ago, the WTA star dropped an update on Instagram in which she informed about her possible competition in a doubles match at the same event.
Posting a picture of her with a tennis racket, she wrote a caption that said, “Vegas, see you soon! I’m teaming up with @mikecbryan at #TheNetflixSlam on March 3rd to take down @bryanbros & @asia.muhammad @MGMRewards.” As the WTA star moves ahead to be a part of the amazing event, it still remains to be seen what role she engages in.
