So far, Maja Chwalińska (WTA 172) has not succeeded in the major tournaments. She came close to the playoffs four times, but ended the struggle after the first encounter. That was the case last season at Roehampton grass. A year later, Bielsko-Biawa returned to Great Britain and this time was pleased with the victory of the inauguration.
Chwalińska defeated Alyona Bolsova (WTA 230) 6:2, 4:6, 6:4 in the first qualifying round for Wimbledon 2022. The duel lasted 1 hour 59 minutes, and our delegate made up for a break in the third set.
The start of the match was brilliant by Chwalińska. The Polish put pressure on the returning player and although the Spaniard quickly made up for the break and tied 2, the initiative was still on the 20-year-old’s side. Belzchanka attacked the position of Bolsova in the sixth and eighth games. Thanks to this, I concluded my 40 minutes with a sure victory.

In the second match, the response came from the Spaniard, who tried to shoot into the net more than once. Our tennis player was broken in the third and seventh games, but the opponent had serious problems closing the set. Chwalińska made up one break point, and in the 10th inning she had a break point at 5. However, Bolsova survived and eventually seized the third chance.
Emotions reached their climax. Chwalińska lost twice with a heavy loss, but each time (the fourth and eighth match) resulted in a tie. With Case 4, the Polish woman made the decisive attack. She may have won the serve, to run two balls for the match after changing sides when passing the opponent. Bolsova could not stand another trade-off and the duel ended.
Chwalińska will join Katarzyna Kawa (more here) in the second round of the Wimbledon 2022 preliminary round. Her opponent on Wednesday will be Romanian Alexandra Ignatik (WTA 174, better known by her maiden name Cadantu).
