At the victory speech, having defeated the skillful Havlickova, Eala spoke about Philippine tennis, meeting Havlickova again in the future, and her idol Nadal. She said, “Of course, we’ll meet many more times in the future. I said that it’s not just my win, it’s all of our wins. I did this not just for myself, I did it so I could help Philippine tennis.”

“I had a lot of moments in this tournament where I was down. I could have lost, could have lost a set, and could have gotten mad easily, but I didn’t. I think my behavior throughout the whole week is something I’m very proud of. He (Rafael Nadal) fights till the end. His thoughts are so clear. He’s so calm, but at the same time, so fired up. I think I really tried to channel that energy during this whole week,” said a victorious Eala.

On the other end, Pacquiao is looking to make a return to boxing against a YouTuber named DK Yoo. Yoo is 42 years old and teaches Martial Arts on YouTube. According to updates, this fight will happen in December this year.
