Episode 8: Wojciech Fibak
In this historical lookback(no pun intended), we take a look at the man who first made Poles fall in love with Tennis and without whom my own mother wouldn't right now be an Iga Świątek groupie.
Wojciech Fibak is a renaissance man in more ways than one, a skillful and fluent player on the court and outside of it, one of Poland's best known art dealers. He was a Grand Slam champion in doubles, a Top 10 player in singles, won 67 career titles in the formats and earned more money than any Polish athlete in the 20th century.
And yet, his most famous night was also his most tragic, on the brink of winning the 1976 Masters in Houston his momentum was destroyed, of all people, by Michael Douglas' father Kirk and his wife! The tragicomedic story of that match and more on this Inside Polish Sports.
