Tennis fans will long remember the 2026 French Open. Among the expected top players, it was a 24-year-old Polish player who had the most moving run of the tournament: Maja Chwali\u0144ska. She made a spectacular leap in the WTA rankings, jumping from 114th to 21st in the world.<\/p>\n

A historic final for the world number 114<\/h2>\n

Maja Chwali\u0144ska became the second qualifier in the Open Era to reach the semifinals of a Grand Slam tournament at Roland-Garros \u2013 before going on to the final. This feat is all the more remarkable given that she finished 2023 outside the world's top 300, ranked 349th.<\/p>\n

During the Paris tournament, she successively defeated four players ranked in the world's top 50, including the Russian Diana Shnaider in the semi-finals. This surge in form galvanized the French public \u2013 and especially the numerous Polish supporters who came, waving red and white flags and chanting her name in the stands of Court Philippe-Chatrier.<\/p>\n

On June 6, 2026, in the final, it was the young Russian Mirra Andreeva, 19 years old and ranked 8th in the world, who prevailed in two sets (6-3, 6-2). "I did my best, I'm sorry. I'll never forget these three weeks, that's for sure," a<\/em> visibly moved Maja Chwali\u0144ska said on the court after the match. At the end of the tournament, she made a spectacular leap in the WTA rankings, jumping from 114th to 21st in the world\u2014a jump of nearly 100 places. <\/p>\n
