Magdalena Fręch Becomes Poland’s Second-Highest Ranked Player After Career-Best Climb to World No. 32
In a notable shift for Polish tennis, Magdalena Fręch has now become the country’s second-highest-ranked player. Surpassing Magda Linette, who has dropped to 43rd in the world, Fręch has soared to an impressive 32nd position—the highest ranking of her career.
