'Success pa more': Alex Eala grateful for support in Miami Open run

Alex Eala herself had her own take on the "sumakses" trend as she dubbed the viral video while also giving thanks to those supporting her in her Miami Open campaign.

"Success pa more!" Eala wrote on the caption of her post on Thursday, hours after defeating world no. 2 Iga Swiatek in the quarterfinals of the WTA1000 tournament.

"Di ko talaga alam kung paano ibahagi sa inyo ang pakiramdam ko ngayon. Ang layo na nang narating natin, pero tuloy pa rin ang laban! Maraming salamat at sana subaybayan niyo ako sa susunod na laban," she added.
