A guy “in love” with Eugenie Bouchard has scored a date with the tennis star after a bold move on social media paid off big time.
But Bouchard’s loneliness might be short-lived after she was ambushed by a punter desperate to profess his love for the 2014 Wimbledon finalist.
Bouchard is no stranger to romantic approaches on social media, famously agreeing to a date with a Twitter user after she lost a bet with him during the 2017 Super Bowl.Bob, who may or may not have been emboldened by some liquid courage, didn’t want to overstay his welcome and bid farewell on FaceTime, asking Bouchard to check her direct messages later — something she promised to do.
Bouchard and LaForce were asking questions of their followers and giving out prizes — like a racquet and signed shoes — to those who answered correctly. Bob then piped up again and offered $500 for a date with Genie., Houston Astros baseball star Joe Smith, have partnered with Project Frontline to recently deliver hundreds of meals to hospitals for healthcare workers involved in the fight against coronavirus.
“You’re also helping me, being a matchmaker for me because I clearly need one,” Bouchard told LaForce. “I agreed, yes, of course. I want to be part of this ,” she added about the development in her love life. But give someone an inch and they’ll take a mile. Rather than being grateful for what he had and running, Bob upped the stakes.
