Bouchard will be playing in the Mutua Madrid Open Virtual Pro against a number of tennis stars around the world.

Rafa Nadal and Andy Murray are among the 24 players to have confirmed their participation in the tournament.

It will be a knockout style tournament and will help raise funds to help those affected by coronavirus.

Tennis has been severely affected by COVID-19, like most sports around the globe, with tournaments either delayed or cancelled all together.

Wimbledon has already been cancelled while the US Open and French Open are hoped to take place in September.
