Eugenie Bouchard
Bouchard, 26, recently auctioned off dinner and a trip to a tennis tournament for the All In Challenge, an online fundraising initiative that has seen dozens of celebrities offer up items or experiences to raise money for organizations providing relief during the coronavirus pandemic.
“The lucky winner and a guest will go to any tennis tournament of their choice,” a description on the auction’s webpage states.
“That’s right, U.S. Open, French Open, Wimbledon or the Australian Open — Genie has the airfare covered.”
“Sit in the player’s box next to Genie’s team and coach while you cheer her on to victory,” the description continued. “Enjoy a meal with the tennis star and even get a racket and sneakers signed by Genie herself.”
The tennis star’s auction proved to be a popular one and attracted 37 offers before closing at a final bid of $85,000. In an Instagram post, Bouchard expressed her surprise at the high number.
