Bouchard and Wie took turns playing golf and tennis together. Both athletes, maybe understandably so, caught on pretty quickly to each sport.

Eugenie Bouchard is almost one month away from the 2017 US Open.

After an early round exit at Wimbledon this year, the Canadian needs a strong rebounding performance at the WTA’s final Grand Slam event. She saw a first round loss to Carla Suarez Navarro at Wimbledon earlier this month.

For now, you can check out photos of the two athletes on their respective social media feeds. Here’s Eugenie Bouchard posting a picture with Michelle Wie on her Instagram profile.

With the 2017 WTA Tour nearing an end, the Canadian will need to compete with several top players in women’s singles tennis.

Halep is also in the lead for the year end Race to Singapore. Stay tuned to see how Eugenie Bouchard and others fare throughout the rest of the 2017 WTA Tour.
