The fallout from Genie Bouchard’s curious Jessica Pegula post following her U.S. Open run continues.
Not long after the Canadian tennis pro stirred buzz Monday over the message, “Money can’t buy a US Open final,” Bouchard stated Tuesday she’s “leaving” X amid social media speculation she had shaded Pegula, the daughter of the Bills and Sabres’ billionaire owner, Terry Pegula.
“I thought Genie was dissing Jess, & I was really shocked. But yes, rereading it, it seems she’s actually complimenting Pegula,” an X user wrote Monday, to which the 30-year-old Bouchard quote-tweeted, “Literally how? I’m complimenting her, she achieved a GS finals bc of hard work, dedication, etc. not bc of money. You can’t buy your way thru the us open draw. She’s amazing. Leaving this app.”
