Huge success for Polish tennis! Maja Chwalińska reached the French Open 2026 final and ultimately finished second. It is one of the greatest achievements in Polish tennis history after Iga Świątek.
In the Roland Garros final, the Pole faced young Russian Mirra Andreeva and, after a tough match, had to concede to her opponent. Despite the final defeat, Chwalińska can be prouder of herself than ever – especially since she started the tournament from qualifying.
Historic ranking climb
Thanks to a sensational performance in Paris, Maja made a real leap in the WTA world rankings. She jumped dozens of places and rose to a career-high No. 21. Poland now has two tennis players in the absolute world elite – Iga Świątek and Maja Chwalińska.
The 24-year-old has become the second most popular Polish female tennis player in the country. Fans, media and experts are absolutely delighted with her determination, fighting spirit and style of play. Just a few months ago, few expected she would reach a Grand Slam final so quickly.
Road to success
Chwalińska showed a warrior’s character throughout this tournament – she won tough matches, came back from deficits and played with tremendous confidence. Her performance on court won over not only Polish fans but also international audiences.
This is undoubtedly a breakthrough moment in Maja’s career. After this tournament, her position in world tennis has completely changed.
