ALEX EALA – “TULOY ANG LABAN”
“Pagod ako, pero trabaho ko ito. Atleta ako, eh. Tuloy ang laban.” After playing 7 high-level matches in Eastbourne—and reaching the final—Alex Eala barely had time to rest before heading straight to Wimbledon.
The grind doesn’t stop.
She had four championship points, but fell just short. Still, her mindset? Champion-level. “Masakit matalo sa tiebreak… pero tennis moves fast. Hindi ka puwedeng manatili sa Ganoon
From Ilkley to Nottingham to Eastbourne, she gained experience, confidence, and lessons she’s now bringing to the grass courts of Wimbledon. “The goal was to get more matches on grass. I did that—and now, it’s on to the next.”
The support from Filipinos hasn’t gone unnoticed “Nakakataba ng puso marinig ang mga mensahe mula sa mga kababayan. Maraming salamat sa lahat ng nanood at sumuporta.”
Even Rafa Nadal noticed. “It’s super special coming from Rafa. He’s such a big idol.”
With her signature grit and heart, Eala is ready for the next battle: “In the spirit of being Filipino—malakas ang katawan, matibay ang puso. Tuloy ang laban.”
