Filipina tennis star Alex Eala fell short of winning the W25 Aldershot title after a three-set loss at the hands of Destanee Aiava of Australia, 6-3, 4-6, 1-6, on Sunday, August 20, in Great Britain.

"Ended my 9 match winning streak today. But still got to bring home a finalist trophy from this W25k tournament," Eala said in a Facebook post.

The 18-year old Filipina sealed a spot in the finals after defeating Katy Dunne of Great Britain in three sets, 1-6, 7-6 (4), 6-3, in the semifinals held on Saturday, August 19.

The 2022 US Open Juniors singles champion also defeated American tennis player Jenna DeFalco, 6-1, 6-2, in the quarterfinals.

Eala has already won four ITF titles. Two of which she bagged in 2023 alone.

She ruled the W25 Roehampton last August 13 in London after defeating Arina Rodionova of Australia, and triumphed against Valentina Ryser of Switzerland last June 4 to bag the W25 Yecla title in Spain.
