FANS declared “Christmas has come early” after Eugenie Bouchard stripped down to a tiny leopard print bikini.
The former Wimbledon finalist, 31, looked sensational as she soaked up the sun several months after retiring from tennis.
Bouchard called time on the court in July after a glittering career.
She broke down in tears when she lost her final-ever match at the National Bank Open.
But Bouchard has since been enjoying life post-tennis.
And her latest Instagram post sent fans into meltdown.

The Canadian star treated herself to some winter warmth by heading south to Miami.
She basked in the rays of sunlight while wearing nothing but a tiny leopard print bikini.

Fans went crazy for Bouchard’s latest sizzling efforts.
One declared: “Wow, Christmas came early for us.”
Another declared: “Literally love you so much.”
One noted: “Good lord.”
Another added: “Beautiful champion Genie.”
Bouchard was once tipped to become a global tennis star after reaching the final of Wimbledon in 2014.
She was just 20 years old when she lost to Czech ace Petra Kvitova.
Bouchard reached the semis of the Australian and French Opens in the same year.
But after reaching No5 in the world rankings, she never made another final in her career.
Bouchard slipped to No48 just a year later as injuries started to take their toll.
