Eala Is The Star WTA Desperately Needs
No comments · Posted by Scoop Malinowski in Articles, Scoop
It has been a very long time since the WTA has experienced such a high impact superstar player like Alexandra Eala.
At the coming National Bank Open the Wednesday night ticket is sold out in Toronto because of Eala. Reliable sources reveal that only Serena Williams has done that in the last twenty years. Not even Rafael Nadal, Roger Federer or Novak Djokovic have sold out an opening Wednesday night at Canadian Open.
Eala, who will contest the Mubadala DC Open final today in Washington DC vs Jessica Pegula, has had a similar massive impact in the nation’s capital this week.
Mubadala DC Open owner Mark Ein was interviewed by Adam Haberman on Tennis Channel after the Naomi Osaka semifinal match. Ein revealed that after the tournament announced Eala as a wildcard entry, about 80 percent of phone calls/emails/contacts/ticket request info from fans was all about Eala.
Alexandra Eala, the lefthander from Philippines, just might be the most profitable, popular player the WTA has right now with the biggest and most supportive, ticket-buying global fan base.
The starpower of Eala could change the fortunes of the WTA and potentially change the game like the Williams sisters, Jennifer Capriati and Chris Evert did in the past.
