Maja Chwalinska did not win Roland Garros, but she won the hearts of everyone over the last 3 weeks.
A journey that started from qualifying.
From world #114 to a new career high ranking of world #21.
The first qualifier in history to reach the Roland Garros final.
To think that in 2021, she stopped playing tennis for months due to a battle with depression and self doubt… Back then, it would’ve been nearly impossible for her to imagine herself in a Grand Slam final.
Her father worked as an electrician in the coal mines and her mother is a receptionist.
They worked tirelessly to support her dreams from the time she was little, and they uplifted her when she had to stop playing tennis to protect her mental health.
Her run in Paris reminded the world that if you work hard at your passion every day, if you have people who love you, and if you never give up on yourself, the ranking next to your name holds no meaning…
You can still make your own fairytale.
Congratulations on everything, Maja. 🥹

When the Netherlands team visited a hospital with sick children, Noah Ohio saw one kid who’s favourite player was Jude Bellingham. 🇳🇱🏴
So he rang Bellingham and this happened. ❤️🧡

That’s it 😤 A really tough one to take. From the lead, our car suffered a broken driveshaft, ending our fight for the win. Thank you all for your support throughout the weekend 🙏
Dit is dus echt Wanbestuur met een hoofdletter W. 😖

Here’s what you need to know (& how to prepare in 2025):
Eddie Jordan on Max Verstappen’s rain masterclass in Brazil:
Eddie🗣"Sometimes you see a Maradona or Messi and you say: oh my god, how did they do that? And this situation in Sao Paulo with Max Verstappen. He comes back and that’s something I’ve never seen before. I’ve never seen such style and total calmness. That guy was brilliant!"
Eddie🗣"I’ve been involved in this game since day one. I don’t know a better driver. I’ve had Ayrton Senna and Michael Schumacher in my car and they were outstanding. But what I saw in Sao Paulo from Max Verstappen, that was something completely off the scale in terms of genius"
Eddie🗣"He not only came from P17 and passed everyone, but won with a margin of 20 seconds. He virtually lapped everyone. And when you see that car in the dry conditions, it doesn't even come close"
