Hear untold stories from the tennis star – from childhood anecdotes to going on tour and staying true to being a proud Filipino
It is an exciting moment for Philippine tennis, with so much energy and hope revolving around one incredible girl who has taken the tennis world by storm.
In this episode, we discover that the story of Alex Eala is shaped not only by blood, but by bond — a journey shaped by family, discipline, gratitude, and heart. Show host Pató Gregorio sits down with “the girl from the Philippines” – a description well-attached to Alex as she plays in the WTA Tour.
She shares untold stories from her childhood and reflects on how her career propelled this year, all while being a proud Filipino.
Her father Mike also joins the conversation, providing insights into what it is like to raise someone like Alex: the thought process behind the decision-making, the inside jokes, and the way their family rallies behind the Alex Eala brand.
Homestretch aims to tell the stories of people who inspire us with their struggles and triumphs, and the places that help define our spirit as a nation.
