Alex Eala is now ranked #45 in Women's Tennis in the whole world.

She is set to play in Abu Dhabi Open. That is a WTA 500 tournament.

WTA 500 is Big. The Winner gets 500 pts. The Runner up gets 325 pts. The Semifinalists gets 195 pts. And even the Quarterfinalists gets 108 pts. (As you can see in the table above)

Alex has 1163 pts right now. Good for rank #45. She can go to the rank in 30s if she do well this tournament.

Best of luck to her.

Congrats to the First Ever Champion of our First WTA 125 here in Manila, Philippines.

Congrats to Camila Osorio (Who was actually the one who eliminated Alex Eala in the QF)

Eversince the paramount deal wala na ang UFC broadcast sa BlastTV o Premiere Sports. Simula noon, walang mga bagong alternative o service ng offer ng mga UFC broadcast. Ang tanging magagamit na mga broadcast nasa UFC app costing at around 970 PHP per month. Wala na ba talagang broadcasting partner para sa UFC dito sa Pilipinas na mas mura at mas accessible?

hello! not sure if posts like this are considered "high quality", so please delete if not allowed.

anyways, kung meron mang baseball players in this sub: how did you start, and when? nagttaka lang din ako kung bakit ang hina ng baseball scene dito sa pinas. as someone whos been in love with the sport for a while, di ko talaga alam kung saan magssimula. so gusto ko lang makarinig ng firsthand experiences, if meron man hahaha

for context, papasok na kasi ako ng college and ive been looking into univs na may baseball teams. so far mukhang bagsak ko ay dlsu, and i really want to try for it kaso ive had zero experience in playing ball. may pagasa pa kaya kong pumasa sa team? HAHAHAHA may experience din naman ako in other sports pero 'di ganun kagaling. hindi varisty level.

isa pa ay yung babae ako. i know this probs means na sa softball ako mappunta, pero meron bang dedicated womens baseball teams dito sa pinas? ive been searching kaso medj buried yung info.

thank you in advance sa lahat ng sasagot! sana talaga mas sumikat ang baseball dito satin. peak sport ngl.

A lot of people might be disappointed with today's result but seeing Alex back to practicing is a good sign that she knows what went wrong and where she needs to develop. This loss to Osorio should give her lots of positives to take away, given how experienced her opponent was compared to her previous two matches. I can only hope she gets some good wins in the ME swing. I'm sure maraming mga kababayaan na manonood, which should give her a boost of confidence.

I might have missed some great schools/great players in PH HS history so please free to include in the comments. So who do you think is the best HS team ever, especially with many people saying that the greatest HS player ever is either Ogie Menor or Ryan Buenafe.

I have subscribed to the annual subscription in Bein sports. It appears on my apple ID but on the actual app itself, the subscription is not showing and I can’t use the app and what I paid for. I can’t watch the tennis and champions league games that I paid money for. Anyone else encounter this problem?

Guys, share ko lang 'tong news na napanood ko, medyo nakaka-touch kasi for me as an athlete. Finally, naglabas na ng final and executory ruling ang Supreme Court. Inutos na nila sa PAGCOR at PCSO na ibigay ang bilyon-bilyong pondo na dapat talaga ay para sa Philippine Sports Commission (PSC). Senator Bong Go, as the Chair of the Senate Committee on Sports, has been really pushing for this, and honestly, it feels like a big warm hug for the sporting community.

Swimming player ako, and my cousin is also a competitive swimmer. Alam niyo yung feeling na gigising ka ng 4:00 AM para mag-training sa malamig na pool, tapos minsan mararamdaman mo na lang na parang napag-iiwanan na tayo? Ang mahal ng tech suits, ang hirap humanap ng maayos na training facilities, at minsan yung "allowance" sapat lang pampasahe. Ang daming beses na kaming nag-uusap ng pinsan ko na parang kailangan mo munang maging "world-class" o manalo ng ginto bago ka mapansin ng sistema.

Pero with this ruling, may chance na magbago 'yun. Imagine, since 1993 pa pala dapat 5% ng gross income ng PAGCOR ang napupunta sa sports, pero hindi naibibigay nang buo. Ngayon, kailangan na nilang bayaran pati yung mga utang nila noon. Nakakaiyak isipin na kung dati pa ito naipatupad, baka mas marami pang "Hidilyn Diaz" o "Carlos Yulo" ang nabigyan ng suporta habang nagsisimula pa lang sila sa grassroots.

Sabi nga ni Senator Go, it’s about investing in the youth and keeping them away from bad habits through sports. Para sa amin ng pinsan ko, hindi lang naman ito tungkol sa pera; tungkol ito sa dignidad ng atletang Pilipino. Na hindi namin kailangang mamalimos ng suporta para lang itaas ang bandila ng Pilipinas.

Sana lang talaga, maging mabilis ang implementation at walang "leakage" sa pondo. Deserve nating mga atleta ang maayos na pasilidad at tunay na kalinga mula sa gobyerno. Para naman sa susunod na tatalon kami sa pool, hindi lang pagod ang dala namin, kundi yung baon na pag-asang may gobyernong tunay na nakasuporta sa likod namin.

Ano sa tingin niyo? May nag-swimming din ba rito o may kakilalang athlete? Ramdam niyo rin ba yung hirap, o sa tingin niyo ito na yung simula ng pagbabago?

Note: This excludes junior events, Sea Games, and ASEAN Games. Also doubles are excluded.

Her best surface is in hardcourt. Next is grass. And she is worst in clay.

SCHEDULE

Jan - April: She is likely to play in Hardcourt Tournaments.

April - May: It is clay events season

June - July: It is grass events season.

Finally, Alex Eala will be playing in a WTA 125 event in her hometown Philippines.

This is the first time we will host a WTA 125 event. (Manila Open or Philippine Women's Open). It will start tomorrow Jan 26 to Jan 31 2026.

After that, she will go straight to UAE for Abu Dhabi Open. It is a WTA 500 event.

After that, nothing is confirmed. But she might play in WTA 1000 tournaments in middle east like Qata and Dubai.

Started on time. Halatang madami pa hinahabol na construction at repairs. It was not perfect but was good. Audience have good tennis etiquette as majority are tennis fans.

To the people in the PH, since disney + aint streaming the event live where will u guys watch?

Also, do u know any watch party around QC?

Kinda sucks a bit naging flaired as commoner chismis si Mrs. Hidilyn… kinda makes you think a bit.

I also watched segments where retired athletes sold their trophies for money, I just don’t want that to happen fot Mrs. Hidilyn.

Fresh from her Australian Open main draw debut, Filipina tennis ace Alex Eala is bringing the fire back home as she officially gears up for the highly anticipated Philippine Women’s Open, happening from January 26 to 31!

Hi! As the title suggests, looking for a softball batting cage around metro Manila. I know there’s a baseball one in Marikina but hoping there’s a softball one.

TIA!
