Alex Eala may have fallen short in her bid to win the 2026 Miami Open, but she still ended up taking home huge amounts of cash following her loss to Karolina Muchova in the Round of 16 at Hard Rock Stadium.
Eala’s run to the fourth round of the WTA 1000 tournament netted her $105,720 (around ₱6.32 million). She has now earned a total of $503,342 (around P30.1 million) in the 2026 campaign.
Eala received a bye in the first round of the Miami Open after she was seeded No. 31 in the tournament. She defeated Laura Siegemund in three sets in the second round before beating Magda Linette in the third round.
