Alexandra Eala was given a special hair tie from Nike to wear at Wimbledon.
It features the sampaguita, which is the national flower of the Philippines.
“Kung may tinanim, may aanihin.”
Which translates to: “If you plant, you will harvest.”
Nike’s message:
“Alex,
The sampaguita: delicate, radiant, resilient,
is more than the Philippines' national flower.
It's strength. It's belief. It's home.
And today, you carry it with you.
Every dream begins as a seed.
"Kung may tinanim, may aanihin." And what you plant, you'll one day reap.
Over the last decade, you've planted it all
- the hours, the grind, the quiet resolve.
And now, here you are, a Filipina on the grass courts of history.
Not just playing for herself, but carrying a nation in full bloom.
All yours.
Team Nike”
Representing everyone in the Philippines with so much pride. 🥹

The Tortured Poets Department. An anthology of new works that reflect events, opinions and sentiments from a fleeting and fatalistic moment in time - one that was both sensational and sorrowful in equal measure. This period of the author’s life is now over, the chapter closed and boarded up. There is nothing to avenge, no scores to settle once wounds have healed. And upon further reflection, a good number of them turned out to be self-inflicted. This writer is of the firm belief that our tears become holy in the form of ink on a page. Once we have spoken our saddest story, we can be free of it.
And then all that’s left behind is the tortured poetry.
THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT is out now: https://t.co/PzuwWnatO7
At this hearing, I stand before my fellow members of The Tortured Poets Department with a summary of my findings.
Album tonight.

The first single from The Tortured Poets Department is…………. Fortnight featuring @postmalone 🤍 I’ve been such a huge fan of Post because of the writer he is, his musical experimentation and those melodies he creates that just stick in your head forever. I got to witness that magic come to life firsthand when we worked together on Fortnight. Honestly can’t wait for you guys to hear this song at Midnight TONIGHT and see the video at 8pm ET TOMORROW.
