Filipina tennis star Alexandra Eala has secured a direct main draw entry at the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships 2026 after breaking into the Top 40 of the WTA rankings, a career milestone that spares her from the qualifying rounds and positions her among the sport’s elite.
This achievement not only highlights her rapid rise on the professional circuit but also gives her the chance to face top‑ranked players such as Aryna Sabalenka, Iga Swiatek, Elena Rybakina, Coco Gauff, and defending champion Mirra Andreeva, while continuing to inspire strong support from Filipinos as she prepares for one of the toughest challenges of her career.
