Marriott Bonvoy, the award-winning travel program of Marriott International and Official Hotel Partner of the Australian Open, today announced Filipino tennis star Alex Eala as the face of its Asia Pacific excluding China (APEC) edition of the globally celebrated Tennis The World campaign.
The partnership marks a landmark moment for the loyalty program as it champions Marriott Bonvoy Moments through sport — one that is youthful, authentic and inspirational. Eala, one of the most exciting names to emerge on the professional tennis world stage today, embodies Marriott Bonvoy’s brand spirit of big-hearted ambition and bold discovery. With breakthrough performances on the sport’s biggest stages, a rapidly growing international fanbase and a deep connection to Southeast Asia, she embodies Marriott Bonvoys’s spirit of curiosity, ambition and discovery.
Representing a new generation of global tennis talent, Eala’s story resonates with fans across Asia Pacific and beyond, making her a natural ambassador for Marriott Bonvoy. “We are thrilled to welcome Alex Eala to the Marriott Bonvoy family as an ambassador for Tennis The World in Asia Pacific, excluding China,” said John Toomey, Chief Commercial Officer, APEC, Marriott International. “Alex embodies so much of what Marriott Bonvoy stands for. She is authentic, inspiring, and proudly connected to the region we serve. Her remarkable rise, culminating in her recent breakthrough WTA title and victories over some of the world’s best players, is a testament to her talent, resilience, and determination. As she continues to make her mark on the global stage, we are excited to support her journey while bringing our members closer to the game through exclusive experiences and unforgettable moments.”
“Travel has always been such a meaningful part of my journey as a tennis player. Every tournament brings the opportunity to experience new places, meet new people and create memories that stay with you long after the match is over. I’m excited to partner with Marriott Bonvoy because they share that same belief in the power of travel and meaningful experiences, and I can’t wait to connect with fans across through this partnership”, said Alex Eala.
