She is the best tennis player in the world. Poland was NEVER in such a high position. Yes, we had Wojciech Fibak and Radwanska, but they were never number 1 for several tournaments. Iga Swiatek (it is spelled "svoutek" and it means a "holy figurine") won several biggest tournaments and also conquered Naomi Osaka, who was number one after Australian tennis player left abruptly. notesfrompoland.com/2022/03/26/iga-swiatek-seals-world-no-1-spot-becoming-first-pole-to-top-tennis-rankings/Iga Świątek seals world No. 1 spot, becoming first Pole to top tennis rankingsIga Świątek will become the new world number one women’s tennis player after her victory over Viktorija Golubic at the Miami Open last night. The 20-year-old is the first ever Polish singles player, male or female, to hold top spot. After the current top-ranked player, Australia’s Ashleigh Barty, dramatically retired this week at the age of 25, the number one spot was up for grabs. Świątek – who has been on an impressive run of form this year and was second in the rankings – was the clear frontrunner. If she won in her opening match at Miami, it would guarantee that, when the next update of the rankings takes place on 4 April, she would be in top spot. Świątek then cruised to a 6-2, 6-0 over Golubic of Switzerland.
