The Polish woman’s great performance on the Parisian courts also impressed the head of government. “We all keep our fingers crossed for Maja! And who knows, maybe the Paris courts will turn into POLAND GARROS again,” wrote Donald Tusk on social media.

However, this was not the prime minister’s first entry dedicated to the 25-year-old tennis player. He had already commented enthusiastically on her victories over the Russians during the tournament. After eliminating Anna Kalinska in the quarterfinals and then Diana Sznajder in the semifinals, Donald Tusk did not hide his delight. “Our Maya the Bee is better than Russian missiles!” – he emphasized.

The head of government has long been one of the politicians who like to celebrate the successes of Polish athletes. At the beginning of the year, there was a lot of talk about the recording published by the Prime Minister after the triumph of the Polish national team in the tennis United Cup. The cameras captured his spontaneous reaction after Jan Zieliński’s decisive action. “Amid the snowy and political storms – such joy! Iga, Kasia, Hubi and Janek. Superteam!” – commented the Prime Minister then.
