Non-notable tennis player who fails to meet WP:NTENNIS and WP:GNG. Some promising results as a junior but nothing major yet to indicate any significant notability yet. Adamtt9 (talk) 12:03, 9 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Definitely passes WP:GNG and WP:ATHLETE. I found some good and indepth media coverage and I've added to article as well. Lunar Clock (talk) 17:48, 9 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Per Lunar Clock. Media sources which are recently added indicate that Eala has participated in several major Tennis tournaments. Article is good enough to pass WP:NATHLETE. _SUPER ^ASTIG 07:21, 10 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Strong keep Per Lunar Clock. And age has nothing to do with notability! She's an amazing young woman! Missvain (talk) 02:24, 12 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Clear delete. With sports, articles that only cover tournament results are considered WP:ROUTINE coverage and do not count towards WP:GNG. The only article that goes beyond that is by Globe Telecom, one of her sponsors and therefore not independent enough to count towards WP:GNG either. To the editors that say keep, which sources do they believe count towards WP:GNG? Sportsfan77777 (talk) 05:36, 12 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Eala is 14. Seeded 4th best of 64 players in Australian Open Juniors. When she's playing at Wimbledon next summer, you'll have to put her page back. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 32.212.169.119 (talk) 14:37, 23 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per WP:GNG, I found https://www.foxsports.ph/tennis/1047277/alex-eala-the-phenom-the-prodigy/ from Fox Sports (Philippines) which is definitely significant coverage from a reliable source. Don't let the weakness of the other keep !voters fool you, there's enough coverage here to get this article over the line. Iffy★Chat -- 19:45, 23 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
