FACT CHECK: No reports of Alex Eala donating $10 million to a children’s charity
A viral Facebook post falsely claims Filipina tennis star Alexandra Eala accepted a $45 million endorsement deal from Wilson Sporting Goods.
The post included a fabricated quote from Eala about helping others and strengthening the Philippines, gaining significant engagement.
Recently, another post falsely claimed Eala donated $10 million to the Philippine Children Health Charity Fund after winning the Guadalajara Open.
Fact-checking by reputable sources and Eala's official accounts revealed no confirmation of this supposed donation.
This recent false claim is similar to a July post alleging Eala donated P3.9 million to homeless senior citizens in Quezon City.
