Eugenie Bouchard: Tennis Star & Model.

Eugenie is the No. 7–ranked female tennis player & last year she simultaneously landed a modeling contract with IMG/WME. The Canadian-native (who just incredibly beat the world’s number one tennis player Serena Williams), covers FLARE Magazine for a total bohemian dream editorial. Bouchard is fierce on & off the court.

It’s all Coachella vibes with Genie who wears pieces by Marc Jacobs & GUCCI in the desert | photographed by Nino Munoz. The 21 year old babe talks tennis, childhood & more.

On the comparisons to Maria Sharapova: “I’m tired of it. When I was ranked 100 and it was my first year on the tour, it was a compliment. I mean, it’s still a compliment. She’s a great champion, but I’m my own person. I just want to be Genie and no one else.”

Eugenie on the ‘twirl’ sitch:  “I didn’t think it was sexist at all. It was maybe a bit odd, but I’m a girl and I do care about what I look like, and I do care about my outfit. We are females, and we can play the sport and be tough on the court but have a girly side and care about fashion and all these things. I think it’s great that we can be more than just tennis players.”

Although, she’s headed straight for supermodel status, Genie, isn’t necessarily heading down the ‘sexy’ shoot rode as Anna Kournikova did, —“One time I did this shoot in England, and I had strawberries in my hand. I was wearing a white dress, and then the photographer was like, ‘Take a bite out of the strawberry.’ I didn’t even think about it and I did it, and my agent was like, ‘No. Delete that. That’s not going anywhere.’”

Bouchard is a ferocious perfectionist (as FLARE puts it), she says,  “I’m very hard on myself. Sometimes too hard on myself. When I lost in the Wimbledon finals, I was so sad, I cried. I had the runner-up trophy! It’s still a great accomplishment, but I was so mad. Everyone told me, ‘Genie, you had a great two weeks. Come on.’ I was like, ‘Yeah, but I didn’t win the title. I don’t deserve any of this.’ My goal is to always win the title.”

On growing up:  “I did not have a normal life. I’d be training when my sister would be at birthday parties and sleepovers. I finished high school by correspondence, basically working two full-time jobs. The last years were very, very tough. But I was willing to do that. It’s all about sacrifice.”

On self-confidence: “I’ve always had this inner confidence, this inner belief. Any successful run I have is never a surprise, because I put in 10 years of hard work.”

We love this kick-a** tennis star/model – can’t wait to see her fierceness on & off the court! Catch the full interview here on Flare.

Chill out with your iPhone at runway shows:“You’re not focusing in the same way as if you weren’t snapping away. Designers have worked too hard for you to take 25 pictures. Beautiful ones will be up on Style.com anyway!”

OP’s Fashion Site: “The industry has changed so much in the last 10 years, especially with the move to online. Between online evolving and e-commerce growing, it was the perfect time to start my website.”

Johannes & Olivia talk about their relationship, he says, “I had a feeling that she would be The One from early on. Six years later, I finally asked her to be my wife.” On his fave look for Olivia? “Lingerie,” he says, “But she also looks ravishing when she dresses for a night out!”

Olivia adds, “I think from the beginning we had a lot of respect for each other.” Was it love at first site? Well at first glance she noted he was “charming and intelligent.” She said,“For our first date he picked me up from The New School in the pouring rain. I had my massive golf umbrella, and I was in Converse and skinny jeans. He was quite the gentleman.”

Huebl said he noticed, “What a cute ball of fun she is.”
