    Eugenie Bouchard to play in Montreal for upcoming Fed Cup match   

Canadian tennis star Eugenie Bouchard wasn't willing to accept a handshake from her opponent at a Fed Cup World Group pre-match ceremony on Friday in Montreal.

Bouchard is playing Romania's Alexandra Dulgheru, who stuck out her hand in front of photographers but was rebuffed with a dismissive wave.

"No, I'll pass," Bouchard said.

It was an awkward moment taken in stride by the No. 66-ranked Dulgheru, who smiled and crossed her arms in the aftermath.

"It's nothing personal towards her, I just don't believe in wishing my opponent good luck before the match," Bouchard told Romanian media. "After we play [Saturday] I will shake her hand, no matter what happens."

This isn't the first time Bouchard has refused a handshake. Last year, at another Fed Cup World Group pre-match ceremony, she gave the cold shoulder to Kristina Kucova of Slovakia in a similarly awkward moment.
