Tennis fans are in for a big treat this month, for March marks the annual Indian Wells Open. Also known as the BNP Paribas Open, the tennis tournament is played on outdoor hardcourts at the Indian Wells Tennis Garden in California.
Now, Filipino tennis fans are in for a bigger treat because Alex Eala made her debut this year. In addition, she just made history by being the first Filipina to reach the Round of 16. The 20-year-old beat Dayana Yastremska of Ukraine and American player Coco Gauff, who had to retire the match due to an injury.

For her match against Dayana, Alex was in head-to-toe Nike. The tennis prodigy wore a deep blue 3/4 sleeve top, which has a quarter zip, and a neon green skirt. For her footwear, she opted for the Vapor Pro 3 in lab green with sapphire swoosh, which complements both her outfit and tennis racket.

Since the Indian Wells Open takes place on a hard court surface, the choice of footwear is perfect since the Vapor Pro 3 offers bounce and burst flexibility. The springy Air Zoom cushioning and new rubber compound make this version lighter than previous Vapors.
