Iga Swiatek Wins Bronze at Paris 2024, Becomes First Polish Tennis Player to Medal at Olympics
Aug 2, 2024, 02:27 PM
Iga Swiatek has made history by becoming the first Polish tennis player to win an Olympic medal. Swiatek secured the bronze medal at the Paris 2024 Olympics after defeating Slovakia's Anna Karolina Schmiedlova 6-2, 6-1. This achievement marks a significant milestone for Poland, as no Polish man or woman had previously reached this stage in Olympic tennis. Swiatek's journey to the bronze included victories in the quarterfinals and semifinals, where she beat Danielle Collins 6-1, 2-6, 4-1, ret. Her success is particularly notable given her impressive performance streak, including winning her last 22 clay court matches and her last 17 sets on clay. Her success continues a family legacy, as her father, Tomasz Swiatek, competed for Poland in rowing at the 1988 Seoul Olympics. Swiatek's accomplishment has inspired countless Polish children to take up tennis and has brought immense pride to her country.
