'MAHIGPIT NA YAKAP SA AKING MGA TAGAHANGA SA PILIPINAS' 🇺🇦🤗🇵🇭
The fans of Alex Eala are making waves online for being loud and proud in their cheering. Well, maybe a little too loud for tennis etiquette.
Ukraine’s Oleksandra Oliynykova got a first-hand taste of what it’s like to face Eala with a passionate crowd behind her, as Louis Armstrong Stadium was filled with “Pinoy pride” on Friday (PH time).
But despite falling to the Filipina sensation, 6-1, 6-4, in the second round, Oliynykova had nothing but gratitude for the fans who welcomed her in New York. Making it even sweeter, she dedicated a message to them in full Filipino.
