Eugenie Bouchard puts love aside to focus on shocking Serena

Serena Williams made a storming return to the Grand Slam stage to set up a second-round clash with a resurgent Eugenie Bouchard yesterday evening.

The Canadian dropped as low as 193 in the rankings last season after soaring into the top 10 back in 2014 — but she has worked her way back into double figures and a 6-2 6-1 victory over Peng Shuai earned her a shot at the title favourite.
