The Freeman
|August 26, 2025
Alexandra Eala produced a jaw-dropping late comeback to carve out a piece of tennis history at the US Open on Sunday (early Monday morning Phl time), becoming the first player from the Philippines to win a Grand Slam singles match with a first round upset of Danish 14th seed Clara Tauson.

The 20-year-old from Quezon City recovered from a 5-1 deficit in the deciding set to score a thrilling 6-3, 2-6, 7-6 (13/11) triumph.
"I'm super over the moon with what I was able to do today, especially coming back in the third," Eala said. "It's a very special win for me."
Eala's breakthrough comes at the end of a season where she had already served notice of her talent.
She took down Australian Open champion Madison Keys and former world number one Iga Swiatek during a giant-killing run to the semifinals of the Miami Open in March.
