Alex Eala
Fans Rush To Buy Nike Merch
… Sells Out In Minutes
Published
Eala Mania is still going strong — ’cause tennis phenomenon Alex Eala‘s Nike merch went live on Tuesday … and not too long after, it was completely sold out.
The 21-year-old Filipino athlete has taken the sport by storm in 2026 … and her popularity exploded after winning the Washington Open against Jessica Pegula in August.
The tournament sold chicken adobo on-site JUST for Alex 😭

Tickets to her matches have since become a hot commodity, with a ton of supporters wanting to catch her in action … and the Toronto Open even added chicken adobo, a classic Filipino dish, to its concessions menu in her honor.
With all the hype, it was only a matter of time until she got her own product with the Swoosh … and Eala was stoked to share the news with her 1.8 million followers on Instagram.
“I have my own shirt!!” Eala said with some mind-blown emojis. “You know what to do.”
The fans understood the assignment … ’cause shortly after the shirts went live, they were no longer available for purchase.
We assume Nike will restock the item soon … but in the meantime, her U.S. Open kit is still available for now.
Safe to say tennis found its next big thing.
