Mindset when watching an Eala Match.
"Ranking don't matter. If Alex can beat a World No.2 while ranked 140, someone outside of top 100 can beat Alex while she's at career high."
Kaya always, win or learn, #Laban!

I always come back to this. Because she knew. She knows. Young Alex Eala will achieve more and will become better in the years to come.

Fast-forward to today: Alex has won her first title, taken down some of the biggest names in tennis and recently found herself practicing with the very same woman who beat her at Wimbledon.

Tennis is truly a humbling sport. The champions know this. They compete fiercely, respect the game and stay grounded. Meanwhile, it’s mostly the fans doing the bickering. 😅

So many life lessons from this sport you can learn from. 🫶🎾

“Eala mania” is real.

I was on the bus watching the doubles match when an older woman asked whether Alex had won. I had to clarify which Alex she meant, and she confirmed, “Eala, the Filipino gal.” I then explained that the match was still in progress and had been delayed.

She went on to say how much she admires Alex’ spirit and mentioned she is part of a Facebook group that follows and engages with Alex’ content. 😊

What stood out to me is that she isn’t Filipino, yet follows Alex closely and speaks about her with genuine admiration.

So yes, “Eala mania” is real.

Unless you’re Navratilova, King, the 2 Williams, Sharapova, Nadal, Roddick, Pegula, Djokovic, Gauff, Mboko, Keys, Osaka or Jovic… your Eala hate narratives simply aren’t prospering. Not even an iota. 💯😉

Tennis is out here losing courts to humble pickleball, so if Alex Eala can pull THIS kind of crowd even for a first-round match, of course organizers will keep betting on her. And honestly? We don’t mind. 🤷‍♀️

She brings competitive, electrifying tennis, earns love from opponents, draws fans beyond the Philippines and brings attention to the sport.

Win or lose, we’ll celebrate her like a champ. That’s just how this community rolls. 🤍

LABAN ALEX!! 💯🤍🇵🇭🙌

Some people still want tennis crowds to sit like it’s a library in 2026. Nah. Alex Eala’s fans bring real energy, real passion, and real atmosphere. The game feels alive when the stands are rocking. Respect the points, but don’t kill the soul of the sport

Traditional tennis fans crying about ‘etiquette’ every time Alex Eala’s crowd gets loud are the same people who made the sport feel dead for decades. Passionate fans didn’t ruin tennis y’all just can’t handle a stadium that actually has a pulse. that same energy kept me awake for hours watching.

Q: Who beat 3 Grand Slam Champions in 1 Masters-Level Event?

🇪🇸Carlos Alcaraz: So that’s Alex (Eala). In Miami, just in case.

OMG CRUMBS FOR MEEE 🥹😂🫶

[gee ✿ @geechives]

this net hug between alex eala and jessica pegula warms my heart 🥹 that’s literally my mom and daughter <3

[Dyan Castillejo @DYANCASTILLEJO]

LOOK: 22-time Grand Slam champ Rafa Nadal played with Alex Eala for 45 mins and was coaching her and cheering her on.

Alex is a prime example of what the Nadal Academy can do. She entered there at age 13, and now at age 20, she’s #50 in the world as a pro.

For those who do not fully understand... this is how much it means for every Filipino anywhere in the world for Alex Eala to win.

Never mind the rain. We show up for our people, whatever it takes. LABAN ALEX! 💯🇵🇭🙌💪

From @TheAthletic: Alex Eala, 21, has been making history for the Philippines since she was a junior. She is changing tennis culture in real time. Many Filipino fans attending the Canadian Open hadn’t been to a tennis tournament before. https://t.co/cWvpxFlOmS
