Alexandra “Alex” Eala is now in Osaka ahead of the Japan Women’s Open, which starts on Monday.

On Thursday, Eala posted a photo on Instagram from the Dotonbori area, featuring the iconic ‘Glico Running Man’—a popular photo spot in the district.

The Filipina tennis ace arrived from China after a series of tournaments, including the Jingshan Tennis Open and the Suzhou WTA 125. She also attempted to qualify for the Wuhan Open main draw but fell short, losing to Moyuka Uchijima in the first round of the qualifiers.

After Japan, Eala is scheduled to return to China for the Guangzhou Open.
