Alex Eala wins longest WTA match to reach Miami Open last 16, eyes Linette next

Alex Eala won a grueling three-hour and 20-minute match against Laura Siegemund to advance to the Miami Open round of 32, marking a career milestone and climbing to No. 29 in WTA rankings. This victory set up her next round against Magda Linette, as Iga Swiatek, once a potential opponent, was surprisingly eliminated. Looking ahead, Eala aims to secure her first win over Linette and build momentum in a WTA 1000 event where she seeks deeper success than last year.
