Meanwhile, teenage bolter Alexandra Eala has gained direct entry into Roland Garros to become the first Filipino woman to play a Grand Slam main draw. And Daria Saville has opened a can of worms on TikTok questioning why brands prioritise tennis ‘WAGs’ ahead of women players for commercial partnerships.
