Following her series of wins against the world’s best which included Grand Slam champions, Jelena Ostapenko, Madison Keys, and world no. 2 Iga Swiatek, Eala went on to visit Universal Studios Florida Theme Park on Sunday.
In one of her Instagram stories, Eala shared a photo of herself with a “milk-stache” from her drink.
The 19-year-old will have more to look forward to because despite her semifinals exit against Jessica Pegula, Eala earned the country’s highest-ever ranking in the WTA.
On Monday, the WTA placed Eala as its world no.75, up from her previous career-best of no.134.
Due to this development, Eala is expected to get a spot in the main draws of the next WTA tournaments, as well as a spot in the remaining Grand Slams later this year.
