Alex Eala gets herself a few days of rest and recovery before resuming her grass court campaign at the Berlin Tennis Open 2026 in Germany next week.<\/p>\n
The 21-year-old Filipina ace has been on a hectic schedule, having captured the Birmingham Open title over the weekend before immediately shifting her focus to the HSBC Championships at Queen\u2019s Club.<\/p>\n
Eala, however, bowed out in the second round at Queen\u2019s Club at the expense of close friend and sixth seed Iva Jovic, 2-6, 2-6.<\/p>\n
The Filipina opened her campaign with an impressive 6-3, 6-2 win over multiple Grand Slam doubles champion Shuai Zhang just two days after winning her second WTA singles title in Birmingham.<\/p>\n
In Berlin, Eala is given a wildcard entry after being originally listed in the qualifying rounds along with\u00a0Zhang, 2021 US Open champion Emma Raducanu, world No. 1 doubles player Katerina Siniakova, and Nikola Bartunkova\u00a0— the same player she defeated in the Birmingham final.<\/p>\n
The main draw, meanwhile, boasts a star-studded lineup led by newly crowned French Open champion Mirra Andreeva, world No. 2 Aryna Sabalenka, former Wimbledon champion Elena Rybakina, world No. 4 Jessica Pegula and No. 7 Coco Gauff.<\/p>\n
Following the Berlin Open, Eala is also set to compete in the Bad Homburg Open, another WTA 500 tournament in Germany that serves as a key tune-up event for Wimbledon\u00a0slated\u00a0from June 29 to July 12.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Published\u00a0Jun 11, 2026 11:09 am Alex Eala gets herself a few days of rest and recovery before resuming…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":106587,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[99],"tags":[112,11126,54180,21584,22606,190,43935],"class_list":["post-106586","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-berlin","tag-berlin","tag-challenge","tag-eala","tag-eyes","tag-following","tag-germany","tag-queen"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@dk\/116737640216492597","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/106586","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=106586"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/106586\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/106587"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=106586"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=106586"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=106586"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
