Eala stuns Swiatek, makes history for Philippines

Alexandra Eala defeated defending Wimbledon champion Iga Swiatek 7-6(9), 6-2 to make history as the first Filipino player (male or female) to reach the quarterfinals of a grand slam tournament. The 21-year-old, who trained at Rafael Nadal's academy, celebrated the victory with tears of joy.

Meanwhile, Spanish tennis hopes now rest solely on Alejandro Davidovich after Jaume Munar and Marcel Granollers were eliminated. Davidovich will face Felix Auger-Aliassime on Sunday, while the day's other matches feature Novak Djokovic, Aryna Sabalenka, and Jannik Sinner. michezonews.co.za
