WIMBLEDON, London -- After Eugenie Bouchard was moved on to Centre Court to finish her first-round match on Wednesday night she said it had felt like she was playing her 2014 final there all over again.Against Johanna Konta on that same great stage a day later, she showed the type of game that had got her there then with a 6-3, 1-6, 6-1 win, displaying the same approach that had made her the next big thing before her painful 2015 slump.Bouchard, the runner up to Petra Kvitova two years ago, was aggressive, hit low and hard, moved nimbly around the court and displayed a level of resilience only possible from someone who had slipped as far as her.The Canadians career-high ranking in the year she made the Wimbledon final was No.5 and on Thursday she was down at No.48; her last year-end ranking lower than that was in 2007.I love [playing on that stage], she told the BBC afterwards. There is no feeling like walking out on Centre Court at Wimbledon.I have learned a lot in my short career so far. There have been ups and downs but I feel strong mentally and physically.Now I have found the joy in tennis, Bouchard added in her postmatch media conference.That much was clear, and will need to be as obvious again in round 3, where she faces world No.18?Dominika Cibulkova, the experienced Slovakian who has finished the last eight seasons in the top 40.As for Konta, it will be little consolation that she made a full contribution to what was one of the matches of The Championships so far.It just about had it all: it was hard fought, the advantage swung like a pendulum, and there were great shots, epic rallies and some controversial line calls.The British No.1, playing only her second match on Centre Court, has invested a lot in increasing her mental strength and it has taken her a long way. Now she knows how much further she has to go.If anything in her play let her down, it was a lack of mobility around the court but both players had started determined to dictate.Bouchard gained the upper hand in the first set before Konta reset and recovered her composure in the second.The Briton, after losing her serve to start the final set, failed to convert three break points in the third game and was broken for a second time immediately afterwards.From that point on, with the home crowd hushed, Bouchard never looked back.It was a battle every single point, said Konta in her postmatch media conference. Ive got a lot of things to take away from that match as a player and a person.Shes an incredibly good player with a lot of experience. Her level of tennis has never disappeared. To have matches like these only adds to my desire to keep getting better.Denzel Ward Browns Jersey . U.S. District Judge Lorna G.
