    Hi! This is Nikodem speaking. I'm sixteen years old and I'm extremely passionate about tennis, which is a significant part of my life. I both play and regularly watch it on TV. You're currently reading a newly established blog called "WTA Magazine." I'll be publishing content related to women's tennis on it. I don't intend to write only about information concerning top Polish players like Iga Świątek, Magda Linette, or Magdalena Fręch, but also about slightly more niche topics. I promise it will be interesting! I encourage you to follow the blog regularly. Have a nice evening everyone!
