Polish tennis players shine in ITF tour and gear up for Warsaw Open
Oriana Gniewkowska was the only Polish singles player remaining in the ITF W15 event in Bielsko‑Biała, advancing to the semifinals and reaching the doubles final with Marcelina Podlińska. She and her partner defeated the top‑seeded pair of Astrid Wanja Brune Olsen and Sevil Juldaszewa 6‑3, 6‑2. In the same tournament, Daria Górska and Emma Slavikova (Poland/Czech) won the doubles title after their opponents withdrew.
Other Polish players performed well in nearby events: Oskar Grzegorzewski and Tiago Pereira captured the doubles crown at the Toyota AirPress Koszalin Open, while Oriana Gniewkowska also won a doubles match there. In Dublin, Urszula Radwańska suffered a heavy 6‑2, 6‑0 defeat to Valentina Ryser, ending her run in the ITF W50 tournament.
Four Polish women – including Gniewkowska, Daria Górska and Urszula Radwańska – qualified for the WTA 125 Warsaw T‑Mobile Polish Open, where they will face opponents such as Radwańska versus Alana Smith. Ahead of the North‑American hard‑court swing, Iga Świątek and Maja Chwalińska trained in Toronto, preparing for the US Open series. Commentary highlighted the challenges facing Chwalińska as she seeks to consolidate her recent rise in the rankings.
