MANILA, Philippines — Alex Eala is now among the Top 150 players in the world of women’s tennis.

In a historic leap, Eala netted a new career-best ranking of No. 143 in the Women’s Tennis Association (WTA) after a rare twin-title feat in Spain.

Eala jumped 12 places from a previous career-high at No. 155 last week. Prior to that, she only got high as No. 157 last May before finally breaching the Top 150.

The Filipina sensation started at No. 1180 upon her entry to the women’s circuit in 2020 when she was at the peak of her junior career, where she rose as high as No. 2 in the world rankings
