Eala battles world No. 2 Swiatek in Miami quarters

- By KRISTEL SATUMBAGA

Alex Eala faces her biggest opponent so far in her young tennis career after arranging a quarterfinal date with five-time Grand Slam champion and world No. 2 Iga Swiatek at the 2025 Miami Open.

This, after the 19-year-old Eala marched into the next round without breaking a sweat after her fourth-round rival, world No. 10 Paula Badosa, withdrew due to lower back injury.

Eala and Badosa were slated to play Monday, March 24 (Tuesday morning, Philippine time) after coming off hard-earned wins in the third round. Eala stunned reigning Australian Open champion Madison Keys, 6-4, 6-2, while Badosa needed a medical timeout early in her match before surviving Danish world No. 20 Clara Tauson, 6-3, 7-6 (3).

Echoes of 1969

As the nation once again finds itself in a season of political anticipation and renewed debate on leadership and governance, we find it timely to revisit a column we first wrote in June last year, “Titans of the House.” The memories it holds have grown even more vivid now, as we recall that on Nov. 11, 1969 — 56 years ago — we were first elected to public office as a young congressman from the then second district of Pangasinan. We were only 32 years old, full of youthful optimism, conviction, and the boundless belief that politics, at its best, could still be a noble calling.
