Eddie and Alastair review a remarkable Miami Open from a Tennis Asia perspective. Alex Eala, the 19-year-old from the Philippines, more than justified her wild card by going all the way to the semifinals. She beat three slam winners in Ostapenko, Keys and Swiatek in straight sets, making history for her country and sending her flying up to no. 75 in the WTA rankings.

Coleman Wong of Hong Kong also made his history of his own by winning his first-round match in Miami and then beating no. 13 seed Ben Shelton in a remarkable match.

Meanwhile, on the ITF Tour, the former world no. 19, Chung Hyeon, won his third title of 2025, propelling him back into the world's top 500 for the first time in almost 3 years. Could we see him back at the top level again?

Eddie and Alastair preview the upcoming 2025 Indian Wells Open from a Tennis Asia perspective, featuring Zheng Qinwen, Naomi Osaka, Kei Nishikori, Zhang Zhizhen, Elena Rybakina, Buyunchaokete and more.

On Episode 24 of the Tennis Asia Podcast, we review a very successful week for three teenage players on the professional circuit, namely 15-year-old Maaya Rajeshwaran Revathi and 17-year-old Manas Dhamne, both from India, and 17-year-old Wakana Sonobe of Japan. Maaya, who recently joined the Rafa Nadal Academy, came through qualifying to reach the semifinals of the WTA 125 event in Mumbai, while Manas Dhamne won his first professional title, becoming the second youngest Indian male to do so. Indian tennis journalist, Haresh Ramchandani, was at the event in Mumbai and he joined Eddie to give us the lowdown on these talented prospects as well as Indian tennis as a whole. Meanwhile, Sonobe qualified for the WTA 500 event in Abu Dhabi and won her first-round match, just after lifting the girls singles trophy at the Australian Open. The future of Asian tennis is looking bright!
