@bajlandoooo Poles are really stupid and can't understand english. When did eala ever say she's poor? Hahahahah bitter Iga fans. Like idol like fans. Miserable in life and sick in the head. 🫢😈😂
Venus on the past-midnight start to her match vs Kenin:
"It was extremely late. I've never played a match that late before. It's not ideal. I would have preferred something else. I think it wasn't great for either of us. I definitely think there's room for improvement there."
12:05am match? WTH! Poor Venus. I hope @usopen will change Alex Eala's schedule on Tuesday and put her before Monfil's match. Women's should be scheduled before men's. This is a mess. 😖 Pls do something @WTA
Just after 12:05am Venus and Sonya have taken the court and are ready to warm up!
Sloane Stephens’ mother Sybil was at the net for the coin toss.

@christianscourt 12:05am match? WTH! Poor Venus. I hope @usopen will change Alex Eala's schedule on Tuesday and put her before Monfil's match. Women's should be scheduled before men's. This is a mess. 😖
Well apparently, Iga fans and Poles are not happy that they put Alex Eala in the stadium. I think we should follow what the Poles want. They are the most important fans in the tennis world. They know who is deserving to be in the big courts and it's not Eala.Pls hear them out💀🫢
Alexandra Eala will be playing her first round match on Tuesday's Armstrong night session 🌚
US Open Tournament Director Eric Butorac is embracing Eala mania 🇵🇭🫶
These Polish compatriot fans of Iga are really melting down over Alex Eala doing scientific research, digging up all sorts of things just to justify their hate. 😭 At this point, it’s ridiculous if it weren’t so pathetic. Like, why are you this obsessed? Alex is clearly living rent-free in your heads while you’re dragging @iga_swiatek into your bitterness and making yourselves a stain on her legacy. Imagine being this pressed over someone who hasn’t even won a Slam. 😭🤭
For six weeks, I got bursts of time with the player who has never won a major, has never cracked the top 10, yet has become the WTA's biggest star since Serena Williams.
Why Alex Eala could be the US Open’s biggest star:

Also, @usopen you can put Alex Eala in a parking lot. We dont mind as long it is a day match. Fans of Iga Swiatek and Poles are mad that you put Eala in stadium. They are the most important people here in tennis and you should follow their rules. No hype for Eala pls. LMAO 🫢😬
I think it is unfair if you will always put Alex Eala at the last night matches @usopen. She will always finish past midnight with less recovery compared to others. Pls spread among the players especially top players. Thanks.
I would actually prefer Eala in parking lot in a day match, than in a stadium as last match of the night. And after an ATP match that could last 5 sets 💀. Girlie has been working hard for WTA 🙄💲
They have announced Ashe and Armstrong schedule on Tuesday.
Keys starts Ashe and is followed by Fritz. On Armstrong, Cobolli kicks off the schedule with Andreeva after.
Night on Ashe starts with Gauff and is followed by Zverev. Monfils/Vallejo on Armstrong with Eala after.
Alex Eala on how aware she is of the impact she’s having on tennis, ‘Every single WTA & ATP player has contributed to the world of tennis & its history just by being here & by putting in the work every single day… I think I’m a drop in the ocean when it comes to these things’
“I’m curious how aware you are of the impact you’re having on tennis. I think everyone in the media is aware that, put your name in the headlines for something and it’ll get 10 times the hits. It’s a game changer for the sport in terms of attention, economy. That’s a lot on one persons shoulders. I wondered how aware you are of that and how you experience that…”
Alex: “At the forefront of everything is gratitude. I’m very grateful for the support that my fans give me and that my supporters give me. In terms of what I contribute to tennis, every single WTA and ATP player has contributed to the world of tennis and its history just by being here and by putting in the work every single day. Although there are certain things like the media, and the things you mentioned that make me stand out, I think I’m a drop in the ocean when it comes to these things. The more I’m on tour the more I learn about the history. This year having had the pleasure to play doubles twice with Venus, I’ve learned a lot about her mentality on court, but also things about how she championed equal prize money with her sister. Things like that. Maybe the regular player on tour who’s not so exposed to the media, what they’ve had to work towards and what they’ve had to work through to get to where they are now is so inspiring in itself. There are so many stories behind the scenes you might not even realize. That really keeps me humble, it keeps me motivated to work harder and be among and stay among these incredible people.”❤️

“Eala-mania” has taken hold at Alex Eala’s recent matches. The proud Filipina player is already a national hero in a country starved of world-class sporting talent https://t.co/DknjlM074q
@lizzy4590 They're venting their frustration at Eala because Ben Shelton got a custom kit from On for the US Open, while Iga didn't. They're mad that she's apparently not the brand's favorite, and now they've seen Eala's custom shoes too, which is basically just salt in the wound lmaooo.
Coco Gauff was asked about how she’s able to remain gracious after her losses, ‘It’s just important to show young kids to be gracious in defeat. Even if you’re not in sports, you’re gonna experience failure at some point in your life’
“I definitely think it is important. For me, I’m not a fan of salty handshakes or things like that. If there is a salty handshake it’s not because I initiated it. I’m always a person who… unless… it’s never happened to me, but unless someone did something so disrespectful, then ok, maybe there will be one 😂 but it’s never really happened to me on the court or off the court. I think it’s just important to show young kids to be gracious in defeat. Even if you’re not in sports, you’re gonna experience failure at some point in your life. You just have to know how to take it with your chin held up high, give that person their props, and try again next time.”
