Eala faces Briton in new UK ITF tilt

AFTER winning the International Tennis Federation (ITF) W25 Roehampton tournament in the United Kingdom, Filipina tennis ace Alex Eala is ready for a new challenge not too far away.
The 18-year-old will face off against Briton Ranah Akua Stoiber, who is also 18, on Wednesday at the ITF Great Britain 12A W25 Aldershot Pro Series.
Eala is the third seed in the tournament, while Stoiber is unseeded.


On Sunday, she clinched her fourth ITF title in the W25 Roehampton singles tournament final in Britain, after beating 33-year-old Russian-Australian Arina Rodionova in two sets, 6-2, 6-3.
