Eugenie Bouchard escapes to Nevada desert to practise social distancing during coronavirus pandemic

EUGENIE BOUCHARD took social distancing to a whole new level – by relocating to a deserted desert.

OK, not quite, but the player ranked 332nd in the world found some solitude in the barren Red Rock Canyon in Nevada’s Mojave desert.

Bouchard wrote alongside one of the pictures, ‘my new home’

She posted a photo to her 2.1 million Instagram followers with the caption: “Social distancing.”

One who viewed the snap had a good point, though, when they asked: “I hope a self-timer took it Genie.”

Others were more drawn to the 26-year-old tennis pin-up’s features.

One commented: “Jesus, Genie have you been doing nothing but squats this whole time or something?”

A fellow user said: “Leg goals.”

Another post read: “Why can’t she come social distance at my house?”

Nevada has banned gatherings of 10 people or more but people are allowed to leave their homes so long as they abide by social distancing guidelines.

Bouchard was recently flooded with offers for a quarantine doubles partner after saying self-isolation would be “a lot more fun with a boyfriend”.

All ATP and WTA tours have been suspended until June 7 with the pandemic totally decimating the sporting calendar.

And Bouchard – who judging by her tweet appears to have split with Connor Davis – is clearly getting a bit bored at home.

The former world No 5 tweeted: “Not complaining, but I feel like quarantine would be a lot more fun with a boyfriend.”

Cue a flurry of responses from fans all over the world.

One joked: “Not bragging but I have 12 toilet rolls in my bathroom.”

And another quipped in reply to that message: “Hey thanks for letting me use your Ferrari last week bro.”
