VIDEO: Eugenie Bouchard hits a shot sitting down
USA TODAY Sports / Jayne Kamin-Oncea
Canada's Eugenie Bouchard is the number two seed for the Portugal Open, and faced off against Russia's Alisa Kleybanova in the first round on Tuesday.
Bouchard, 20, is primed for big things this season, and will look to make a deep run at Roland Garros in a few weeks time.
If she can pull off shots like this, hitting from the ground and still managing to win the point, Bouchard will do just fine.

Bouchard defeated Kleybanova 6-4, 6-2. What a point.
