Alex Eala is set to continue her grass-court season, seeing action as the no. 1 seed in the Ilkley Open.
Alex Eala looks to reset her grass-court campaign as the no. 1 seed at the 2025 Lexus Ilkley Open, a WTA 125 event in the United Kingdom.
The 20-year-old Filipina returns to action Tuesday (PH time) after an early exit in the Birmingham Open, where she lost in the first round of both singles and doubles.
This time, Eala will focus solely on singles as she tries to build momentum ahead of Wimbledon.
Currently ranked world no. 77, Eala slid four spots in the post-French Open rankings following her main draw debut at Roland Garros.
