 * "She was the champion at the 2020 French Open and is the first Polish Grand Slam singles champion in history." - repetition of "champion"

 * "She followed this up with her best junior title to date at the Grade 1 Canadian Open Junior Championships, defeating Olga Danilović in the final." - perhaps clarify this was in the singles?
 * It has to be singles because she faced only one opponent (Danilović) in the final. Sportsfan77777 (talk) 09:58, 24 October 2020 (UTC)
 * "Świątek had a strong first half of 2017. She won both the singles and doubles titles at the Grade 1 Traralgon Junior International.

2019: First WTA final, top 50 debut

 * "She then defeated No. 82 Ana Bogdan in three sets in her debut match to reach the second round." - WTA Tennis does not mention Bogdan was world No. 82
 * It does. Apparently, they split the "2019 page" in half right in the middle of the Australian Open for some reason (probably a mistake in the website setup). If you click the "show more", the match with Bogdan appears. Sportsfan77777 (talk) 10:44, 24 October 2020 (UTC)

 * "Świątek closed out her clay court season with a fourth round appearance at the French Open in her second major." - Think a direct use of a reliable source will help matters here

 * "She also became the youngest singles champion at the tournament since Rafael Nadal in 2005 and the youngest women's singles champion since Monica Seles in 1992." - repetition of "champion"
