By Alex Eala marveled at the growing support she has received at the Mubadala DC Open in Washington, where tournament organizers said fans have flooded them with inquiries about her matches.
Tournament chairman Mark Ein said the event has received an overwhelming number of inquiries about Eala since announcing her participation last month.
“When you look at the amazing players here and how many great stars there are, it says something about Alex’s following,” he added. “Earlier this year, our team said, this is a phenomenon that’s spreading, and we should try to get Alex to come to Washington. Having her here is honestly one of the really great things that’s already happened this year.”
