from the Rafa Nadal Academy, Alex Eala returned to the pro tour to contrasting results in the opening rounds of the Open Villa De Tauste-Tomas Arrieta & Altra Logistica in Spain.
The 23-year-old Aiava, unseeded in the $25,000 ITF event, has a career-high world ranking of 147 and has played four times in the main draw of the Australian Open women’s singles. Eala’s woes did not end there as she dropped her serve right in the first game of the second set. Though she countered with her own service break immediately after to tie anew at 1-1, the Filipina teen was unable to string together points she needed to take the lead.Two hours later, Eala was back on the court to play her first doubles match in the tour since April.
