Bouchard has slipped down the world rankings to 191 since losing to Petra Kvitova in the Centre Court final in 2014, with injuries blighting her career. “I was really solid today, I was a little nervous before,” the 24-year-old Bouchard told the BBC. “I feel like I’ve earned (my main draw place) more than just being in by ranking so I’m proud of it and I got matches this week which is what I wanted because I’ve not played a lot, I’ve been injured, so that was the goal,” added Bouchard, who in 2014 also reached the semi-finals of the Australian and French Opens.
