Alex Eala bows to Mirra Andreeva at Macau Tennis Masters
Alex Eala holds a 1-1 record after her first two events at the 2025 MGM Macau Tennis Masters.
She contributed to Team Li Na's victory in a captain's challenge against Team Conchita Martinez.
Eala lost her singles match against World No. 9 Mirra Andreeva with a score of 4-6, 2-6.
Despite the loss, Eala, aged 20, showcased her potential against a top-ranked opponent.
Eala experienced a loss in the mixed doubles after her original opponent, World No. 9 Mirra Andreeva, withdrew due to illness.
Andreeva's withdrawal led to a new pairing of ATP No. 14 Alejandro Davidovich Fokina and WTA No. 182 Yibing Wu, who defeated Eala and her partner Jerry Shang with a score of 7-5, 7-6(1).
