Former world No. 4 Greg Rusedski believes that Alex Eala's serve could be a limiting factor in her rapidly improving tennis career. Rusedski highlighted technical aspects of Eala's serve, such as her elbow and throwing positions, which he believes need improvement. He also pointed out that Eala's serve motion could benefit from better tilt, particularly in relation to the front and back shoulders.
Rusedski believes that altering the angle of the serve could help Eala harness the power of her elbow and loosen her wrist, potentially increasing her serve speed by a few miles per hour. Rusedski expressed interest in working with Eala on her serve during the off-season, as he believes that improvements in this area could significantly enhance her overall game.
Eala currently trains with Joan Bosch and Toni Nadal and is preparing to face the pressure of representing the Philippines on the world's biggest stages. She recently appeared on CBS Mornings to discuss the accolades and pressure that come with her growing success, as well as the support from Filipino fans who follow her journey.
