EALA DROPS TO 67TH IN WTA LIVE RANKINGS 

As of Saturday, August 2, 2025, Alexandra Eala has slipped to No. 67 in the WTA live singles rankings. She is now positioned just behind Renata Zarazúa (Mexico) and ahead of Elina Avanesyan (Armenia). 

On the WTA website, however, she is ranked 65th, which is 11 places lower than her career best ranking of 56th. Eala pulled out of the Cincinnati Open earlier this week because of an injury to her left shoulder sustained in the National Bank Open in Montreal.

Snapshot: Eala’s Ranking Trajectory 

Date Ranking Notes 
June 30, 2025 No. 56 Career‑high 
March 31, 2025 No. 75 First entry into WTA Top 100 
August 2, 2025 No. 67 Dropped after early losses/withdrawal 

While this is a recent slide, it’s worth noting Eala’s breakthrough earlier this year, qualifying historic wins at the Miami Open 2025 and reaching the semifinals, where she became the first Filipina to defeat top‑10 players on the WTA Tour.

 Eala pulled out of the Cincinnati Open earlier this week because of an injury to her left shoulder sustained in the National Bank Open in Montreal. According to the WTA website, apart from the Cincinnati Open, she will also miss the Abierto GNP Seguros Monterrey Open in Mexico, which will take place on Aug. 18. In Cincinnati, Eala was replaced by Zarazua, who was a rival and former doubles partner in previous tournaments. 

She wrote in an Instagram post, following her National Bank Open stint- “Montreal was a short but sweet trip. I had so much fun out on court! Time to rest and recover”. She had a three-set early exit in Montreal to former Wimbledon champion Marketa Vondrousova and is supposed to get ready for the upcoming US Open main draw later this month. 

Her recent jump in the rankings this year stemmed from defeating higher-seeded opponents that included then World No. 2 Iga Swiatek in the Miami Open back in March, as well as a finals appearance in the Eastbourne Open last June.
