Genie Bouchard has become one of the most popular athletes on social media over the past couple of years which has led to multiple appearances in Sports Illustrated’s swimsuit edition over the past couple of years.
Sports Illustrated posted the full story on her photoshoot including a behind-the-scenes video.
She won’t be the only athlete to appear in the magazine either. Fellow tennis star Sloane Stephens will also feature in the magazine after her Grand Slam win in 2017. Other stars in the magazine will include Olympic gymnast Aly Raisman and Justin Verlander’s wife, Kate Upton.
None of them will feature on the cover, which will instead go to Danielle Harrington, who was pretty excited when she found out.
