Filipino tennis fans were hoping good things come in threes. Alex Eala instead got a reminder that in tennis, past wins do not always travel well across surfaces.
Alex Eala did not just arrive in Linz, she made sure everyone noticed. The Filipina carved out a confident 6-4, 6-3 win over hometown bet Julia Grabher to kick off her campaign at the Upper Austria Ladies Linz, and in the process, turned a potentially tricky opener into her own highlight reel.
ABS-CBN has secured its first syndication agreement in India through a multi-title deal with Amazon MX Player. This marks the first time Filipino drama series will be available on the platform.
Alex Eala served Manila its Sunday headline hot and early, with coffee brewing and pandesal fresh from the oven, dishing out a crisp 6-3, 7-6 win over Magda Linette to punch her ticket to the Round of 16 of the Miami Open.
