Defending Wimbledon champion Iga Swiatek loses in 3rd round to Alexandra Eala
LONDON (AP) --- Iga Swiatek's title defense at Wimbledon ended Saturday in a
7-6 (9), 6-2 third-round loss to 21-year-old Alexandra Eala, who continues to
make history for the Philippines.
Eala is the first Filipino player, male or female, to reach the fourth round of
a Grand Slam singles tournament.
Swiatek earned her first Wimbledon women's title a year ago when she beat
Amanda Anisimova 6-0, 6-0 in the final.
