MANILA, Philippines — Alex Eala could not sustain her historic win against a former world No. 5 player as she fell short in the Miami Open qualifying draw final at the Hard Rock Stadium in Florida, United States.
The Filipina tennis sensation waxed hot early but faltered after dealing with cramps against Emiliana Arango of Colombia, losing 6-2, 5-7, 1-6, in a foiled bid to make the main competition of the elite WTA 1000 event.
