Wimbledon next for Eala
MANILA, Philippines — Already halfway through a rare feat of winning all four juniors Grand Slams, Filipina tennis pride Alex Eala sets her sights on ruling the Wimbledon Championships in London next month.
The 16-year-old said she’s good to go for her third Slam bid after completing necessary documents including her visa for the prestigious grass court tilt starting on July 5.
“I will be playing Wimbledon juniors, both in singles and doubles. Everything is planned out already,” Eala said in yesterday’s Power and Play show of ex-PBA commissioner Noli Eala on Radyo Singko.
A Wimbledon crown for Eala, who already won the girls’ doubles titles in the 2020 Australian Open and 2021 French Open last week, would put her one Slam away from winning all four majors with the US Open as the last remaining piece.
Eala did not reveal the name of her doubles partner at Wimbledon.
