Eugenie Bouchard may have agreed to a second date with her much talked about Twitter beau, but it looks like he’s not the only man in the picture.
The 22-year-old Montreal-born tennis star’s verified Instagram account shows Bouchard cozying up with an unidentified male, whose tattooed arm is pictured caressing her inner thigh as the bathing-suit clad pair lie out at an exotic locale.
It was posted two weeks before Bouchard went on a highly publicized date with John Goehrke, a University of Illinois marketing student who won the rendezvous after a Super Bowl wager with Bouchard via Twitter.
The other man? Internet detectives believe it’s professional hockey player Jordan Caron — a native of Sayabec, Quebec — who is currently a part of the St. Louis Blues organization.
The New York Post was first to report the connection.
Plenty of hints about a relationship between Bouchard and Caron exist.
Sleuths trolling Bouchard’s Instagram account — which boasts more than 1.3 million followers — believe the tattoo on the inside of the unidentified man’s forearm in that photo belongs to Caron.
The hockey player also posted a picture on his own account around the same time; in it, Caron rocks a neon orange bathing suit, comparable to the one in Bouchard’s photo, in a similarly tropical environment.
The pair appears in two separate photos on Caron’s Instagram profile.
His most recent nod to the tennis player came Wednesday — the day of her date with Goehrke — when he posted a photo of her spread in this year’s Sports Illustrated Swimsuit edition.
The caption, in part, read “proud of you,” followed by a heart emoji.
Still, Bouchard’s social media flame doesn’t seem phased by her apparent real life romance.
Goehrke told Fox Sports on Friday that he was “thrilled” that Bouchard agreed to a second date.
The ball is in her court regarding that meeting, Goehrke said, but he planned to try and make it happen so he and Bouchard could get to know one another better.
“At this point I’m just trying to make a second date happen and we can worry about (Caron) later.”
