On to US Open. 😁🥎
Mag mixed doubles ka pa, maglalaban pa kau ng singles match for Stars of the Open with your cool kids frenny Iva Jovic (milove). ☺️
That's just how it is for tennis or any kind of sport. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. And all great champs had their own taste of defeat too. ☺️
It's just going to make her better, wiser and stronger. 💯
Ako lang ba di masyado malungkot sa pagkalotty ni alex. Gusto ko well rested sya sa US Open at ayoko muna makaharap nya si Linda something baka magka lindaphobia na sya pag nalotty sya ulet don. She’s tweaking her serves hence the double faults. She’s serving hard lalo pa nung nakita nya nababasa ni amanda yung fookelya serve nya.
As a Filipino, seeing this genuinely touched my heart. 🥹🤍
Thank you, @NBOtoronto, for making it feel like more than just an event but a celebration of the players, the fans, and tennis itself.
It felt like a warm welcome for new fans, especially those from the Philippines. 🇵🇭
And the way you honored the champions, the players and then Alex Eala… 🫶🇵🇭
This meant so much. Maraming Salamat. 🤍

Aww the bond that Venus, Andrea, and the Eala fam have built is so, so precious. A personalized message like this from one of the greats must mean so much to the entire team.
“…plus many many championships. Go Eala!” 🥹❤️
I haven’t slept properly in 7 nights.
Every match from Washington to Toronto started at midnight or 1:30am in Nigeria.
I stayed up anyway.
My mum and siblings started noticing the light under my door.
Now the whole house knows her name.
Friends are DMing me: “Who is this Alex Eala girl you’re obsessed with?”
Then the loss in Toronto hit.
Messages of consolation flooded in.
Eala Mania took a hard L.
Today my annoying chef cousin Zee cooked my favourite meal as a “sorry you lost your queen” special.
It was actually fire.
I still don’t know much about the Philippines…thanks some Filipinos
but I’m definitely exploring the culture now. Salamat 👏🏼
All eyes on Cincinnati.
Then the US Open.
Something tells me a Grand Slam is coming a lot sooner than people think.
Worth every sleepless night.
Proud of you, Alex. 🇵🇭
