Alex Eala earns 400,000 pesos after winning bronze at Asian Games

Alex Eala secured a bronze medal in women’s singles tennis at the Asian Games on October 6, 2026, held in Nagoya, Japan. Eala, the top seed, lost in the semi-finals to Xiyu Wang, the eventual gold medallist. Although the Asian Games do not offer official prize money, Eala will receive 400,000 Philippine pesos (approximately $6,378.77) from the Philippine Sports Commission for her performance. This financial incentive offsets the risk of a potential fine of up to $10,000 for skipping the China Open to participate in the Asian Games. Eala is set to compete next at the Wuhan Open, starting on October 12, 2026.
