Filipino tennis sensation Alex Eala recently turned 20 while competing on one of the sport’s grandest stages: the French Open

Although her birthday coincided with a challenging match at Roland Garros, where she fought through a rough start and a rain delay but ultimately fell short in her Grand Slam main draw campaign, she still found time to celebrate in style in the City of Light prior to the match. 

Eala was seen enjoying a scenic Parisian moment with close friend and fellow tennis pro Coleman Wong.

In a birthday post on his Instagram story, Wong shared a photo of the two smiling warmly while seated at a table near the Louvre Museum, its iconic glass pyramid visible in the background. 

“Happy birthday @alex.eala,” he wrote, holding Eala’s arm in a candid and cheerful shot that quickly caught fans’ attention.

Both Eala and Wong, who trained together at the Rafa Nadal Academy, have turned 20 this year.

Both tennis talents have shared years of training, travel and growing pains on the pro circuit. But are they more than just friends? The buzz is familiar as this isn’t the first time Eala and Wong’s friendship has sparked dating rumors.

However, Eala has consistently clarified the nature of their relationship. During a press conference following a milestone victory at the Miami Open last year, she directly addressed the speculation. When asked whether Wong was her boyfriend, the then 19-year-old said firmly, “No, he is not.”

Eala’s Parisian birthday was further highlighted by glimpses of her enjoying the Eiffel Tower’s majestic view, balancing a brief moment of leisure amid the pressures of pro tour life.

Though she couldn’t script a fairytale ending on the court, the off-court support and celebration offered a meaningful reminder of how far she’s come.

As she enters a new decade of her life, Eala remains a figure to watch, not only for her resilience on the court but also for the way she carries her journey with authenticity, grace and joy.
