Alexandra Eala to host record-breaking tennis exhibition in December

Alexandra Eala will play an exhibition match against Janice Tjen of Indonesia on December 8 at the Philippine Arena in Manila. The venue has a capacity of 55,000, and a full house could break the attendance record set by Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal in 2020. Eala has garnered a significant following as a young ambassador for tennis in the Philippines, attracting fans who may not have previously engaged with the sport. Her performance has been noted for its potential to increase interest in tennis domestically. The anticipation for the event is fueled by Eala's growing popularity and the venue's large capacity.
