MANILA, Philippines \u2014 Alex Eala guns for her first-ever Grand Slam quarterfinal appearance, facing Italian Jasmine Paolini in the Wimbledon round of 16 on Monday (Philippine time).<\/p>\n

Eala hopes to make it 2-0 against the world No. 17 Paolini following her 6-1, 7-6(5) win in their first and only duel in the round of 32 of the Dubai Open<\/a> early this year.<\/p>\n

The 21-year-old Eala dethroned defending champion Iga Swiatek<\/a> of Poland, 7-6(9), 6-2, to continue her best Grand Slam run yet.<\/p>\n

Eala seeks to become the first Filipino to reach a Grand Slam quarterfinal after Felicisimo Ampon pulled off the feat at the 1953 French Open.<\/p>\n

Alex Eala bids to extend her dream Wimbledon run into the quarterfinals when she faces Jasmine Paolini on Monday.<\/p>\n

Eala stunned reigning champion Iga Swiatek<\/a>\u00a0with a brilliant straight-sets victory on Centre Court in the third round and now faces the task of backing up that breakthrough triumph against former Wimbledon finalist Paolini.<\/p>\n

The 21-year-old has been tipped to become a star of the women\u2019s game since defeating Swiatek to reach the Miami Open semifinals last year.<\/p>\n

In a three-minute, 33-second post match interview that she started as an emotional wreck, Alex Eala let the world know what the path that got her this far was all about.<\/p>\n

And what making the round of 16 of a Grand Slam event after dethroning Wimbledon women\u2019s singles champion Iga Swiatek means to the now 21-year-old from the Philippines who is taking the tennis world by the proverbial storm.<\/p>\n

She first rattled off the names of the Williams sisters and also the gracious Swiatek, who all \u201chave so many Slams,\u201d saying that making the fourth round of Wimbledon \u201cmay seem small (to them).\u201d<\/p>\n
