Eala, 21, enters the US Open as the No. 17 seed while riding the momentum of an impressive season that has seen her win a first-ever WTA Tour-level title at the WTA 500 Washington Open, beating top seed Jessica Pegula in the final.
The year has also seen Eala rise to a career-best No. 18 in the world rankings and reach the Round of 16 at Wimbledon - the deepest any Filipino tennis player male or female has gone in a Grand Slam tournament.
At the 2026 US Open, the Filipina is set make her debut against American Mary Stoiana, who reached the main draw by hurdling three matches in qualifying, including a 6-3, 4-6, 6-4 win over Yuan Yue in her final qualifier.
The Watch Party is just the first leg of a collaboration between Esquire Philippines and SPIN.ph, with Clear Men as co-presenter, HONOR Magic V6 as major sponsor and Monza Barcade as venue partner.
We will also host two more upcoming watch parties for the Singapore Grand Prix in October, and Gilas Pilipinas' match in the FIBA World Cup Asian Qualifiers window 5 in November.
