the more time i spend on tennis twitter, the more i realize that it has some of the most racist, elitist, and xenophobic fans out there which is pretty ironic for a sport that expects proper etiquette from fans and even the players lmao

[The Olympic Games @Olympics]

It's Alex Eala's world. We're just living in it. 🇵🇭✨

What a treat to spend some time with Alex Eala, fresh off her historic win at Wimbledon today.

She is the first Filipino to reach the Round of 16. Such an inspiration for kids in the Philippines and all over the world.

Keep going for it, Alex!

Enjoy every second, Alex Eala.

Alex Eala says she grew up playing on a court where a basketball court was painted over the tennis court

“Did you grow up on any grass courts in the Philippines? I don’t think there were many…”

Alex: “I don’t think there were any to my knowledge. No, I did not grow up on grass in the Philippines. I grew up on a court where a basketball court was painted over the tennis court. 🥹 There would be the basketball hoops. I couldn’t really step back a lot because then I would hit the basketball hoop.”

you people will never understand the situation and emotions of athletes coming from countries with only a little representation or none at all on a global stage or competition. she’s paving the way for tennis in the philippines & least you can do is be respectful or just stfu

Advantage: Alex Eala 🇵🇭

The 21-year-old takes an entertaining first set 7-6(9) against defending champion Iga Swiatek

Alex Eala got a special engraved visor for Wimbledon, and since people often wonder why certain Nike players get “special treatment,” I thought it would be a good time to explain.

Being the #1 star of a sport in your country makes you particularly lucrative from a marketing standpoint. Nike Philippines is responsible for many of the special touches she’s received over the last year.

I really need these people to know that a tennis player’s prize money is basically her operational expense. That’s her payment to the endless flights, extra accommodations, and training fees every tournament. This is not exclusively for her consumption.

The FIVB-appointed Ad-Hoc Committee has officially laid out the roadmap for the 🇵🇭 Philippine National Volleyball Federation (PNVF) to lift its suspension and build a sustainable future for the sport!

Following extensive consultations with the POC, PSC, PVL, athletes, and coaches, the FIVB has outlined an 8-point pathway focusing on governance, athlete welfare, and long-term development.

Here is what the PNVF must accomplish:

PSC Collaboration: Sign a written commitment to honor the 7-year PSC Agreement for event organization and the Volleyball Empowerment program.

Coach Compensation: Immediately pay all outstanding salaries to coaches and commit to on-time payments moving forward.

PVL Alignment: Move the PVL into the National League season by 2027, sync with the FIVB calendar, and mandate player releases for national team duties.

Governance: Create a strict conflict-of-interest policy within 3 months and complete an FIVB-defined good governance training program within 6 months.

Long-Term Blueprint: Develop an FIVB-approved, long-term roadmap for the national team, complete with proper infrastructure and budgeting.

Athlete Voice: Establish an Athletes’ Commission within 6 months and amend by-laws to include an athlete representative on the PNVF Board.

Grassroots Expansion: Launch a regional league within 6 months to discover talent outside Metro Manila and create a sustainable pathway to the national team.

Moving forward, the FIVB and POC will form a Transition Committee to oversee PNVF operations during the suspension and ensure strict compliance with these vital reforms.
