Eala Ends Losing Streak With Convincing Ningbo Win
Alexandra Eala defeated Diane Parry in straight sets to reach the second round in Ningbo, winning 6-3, 6-1. She lost her serve twice but broke her opponent six times to secure a comfortable victory.
The result will come as a relief to Eala, who had never won a tour-level main-draw match in China before this week. She also ended a four-match losing streak on the WTA Tour with this victory.
Despite her recent slump, the Filipino star has made significant progress this season. Her breakthrough campaign included winning her maiden WTA title in Washington, alongside strong runs in Toronto, Wimbledon, Indian Wells and Miami. Those results helped her break into the top 20 for the first time a few months ago.

Shnaider Survives Tough Test To Reach Second Round
Diana Shnaider advanced to the second round in Ningbo after defeating Yulia Putintseva in two tight sets, 7-5, 7-6. She recovered from a 2-5 deficit in the opening set and another 3-5 deficit in the second to complete an impressive comeback.
Shnaider is now one win away from reaching her third quarterfinal in Ningbo. She previously reached the semifinals in 2025 and the final in 2023.
Although the Russian has not won a title this year, her consistent performances at high-profile tournaments have helped her return to the top 15 in the rankings.
Her standout results include semifinal appearances at the French Open and in Washington, as well as quarterfinal runs in Wuhan and Toronto, alongside several other third-round finishes.
