Alex Ella’s ascension to the stardom of tennis has caused great attention from Filipino sports fans. But the world of social media is not all rainbows alone.

But with increased attention, the criticism came. A series of early exits after Miami led to hate comments from some informal fans and new supporters.
However, she chose to adhere to the positives, which is grateful for the increasing support for Filipino tennis over the past three months.
“On the one hand, I do not care about many negative comments,” Eyla said during a meeting and greeting organized by her main supporter on Friday. “One mentality I have is, there is a lot of the mentality that I get from Benweys. So why do I focus on Kung Conte Conte Lang? Usually, these people do not know about tennis, and many people do not know what is going on behind the scenes.”

A graduate of the RAFA NADAL Academy is still not polite due to doubts, as it focuses on improving and achieving more for the country.
“I am very confident in myself, in my team, and in my work. I know that we are doing things correctly and I am doing my best. So confidence allows me not to be affected by some comments,” Ella said. “I am only grateful for all love and support.”

Being a path for Filipino tennis is what drives it in the championship.
“It is a great honor. I just have to do my best to behave as much as possible because I know that, especially in the international tennis scene, I am a kind of what comes to mind when they think about the Philippine. So, I do my best really.” “I know that many people look at the top, and many young people look at me. I just want to represent us in a way that Benweys is happy.”
In fact, the feeling of the Filipino tennis turned into the presidents-even with the admiration of the Wimbledon champion of the Parbora Krikova after fencing in the first round, where Eyal bent in three groups, 3-6, 6-2, 6-1. Krejcikova Eala described part of the next generation of sports and said it will be “really good in the coming years.”
Eyla, who ranked first in the 56th world after her first appearance in Wimbledon, contemplates the open runner -up, to continue building the momentum and attracting more Filipinos to support this sport.
