Canadian tennis star Genie Bouchard recently went viral with an Instagram post featuring herself in a bikini while cleaning her backyard. But it was American men’s tennis player, Sam Querrey’s humorous response which stole the show on social media.
Querrey, donning just a pair of swimming trunks, perfectly mimicked Bouchard’s poses and videos, resulting in a light-hearted social media moment that had fans in stitches. Bouchard, who is always a good sport, responded with enthusiasm, suggesting that they do a photoshoot together. The American got into the act in the comments section too, claiming that it appeared as if that is exactly what fans want too.
Not only did she love Sam’s recreation of her photos, but she also reposted it on her Instagram story, captioning it, “Screaming crying throwing up.” The continuous light-hearted banter between these two players, who have now switched to pickleball, has delighted fans.
