The past five years has seen Chwalinska work hard on the lower levels of the WTA Tour, diligently trying to improve her game.

Working on being able to mentally compartmentalise her career – which she associated with “pressure, stress and crying” – from the rest of her life has proved crucial.

A year ago, Chwalinska was playing tiny tournaments in Italian cities Brescia and Bari after going out of the French Open in the second round of qualifying.

Now she has won nine matches in a row at Roland Garros. One more will see her become the first qualifier in the Open era to lift the trophy here.

Maybe the tattoo represents how she has played over the past three weeks – with a freedom and joy that has captivated the Parisian crowds.

Chwalinska has earned notable wins over former French Open semi-finalist Maria Sakkari and Olympic champion Zheng Qinwen, as well as beating three seeded players in Shnaider, Anna Kalinskaya and Elise Mertens.

Playing with variety and spin, Chwalinska can lob, drop shot and moonball her opponents to distraction, but she can also hit with pace to finish off points quickly.

“I feel like I’m in the bubble. I don’t know what’s going on. I’m just very happy to be here,” said Chwalinska, who has almost tripled her career prize money with the guarantee of winning at least £1.2m by reaching the final.

“After the tournament there will be time to process it and breathe in, breathe out.”

OLIVIA Attwood has revealed her brand new tattoo as she added another ink to her collection, and made a dig at her ex Bradley Dack in the process.

The TV presenter has several tattoos for her footballer ex, including his shirt number – 23 – and one which says ’till death’; with the other half of the phrase, ‘do us part’, inked on the sportsman.

Whilst the tats may be forever, the couple split earlier this year after tying the knot in 2023 – with Olivia revealing he cheated on her multiple times throughout their decade long relationship.

And as Olivia headed to get inked again this week, she seemingly took a swipe at Bradley for the hurt he has caused her.

“I hope this one doesn’t break my heart,” she cryptically said while unveiling the new tat, alluding to the ones she has for her ex.

Olivia got the word ‘Savano’ inked on her arm in red, which she confirmed was a name, but didn’t provide who it was a tribute to.

Filming herself as she headed into the parlour, the star told the camera: “I clearly haven’t learned my lesson. I’m feeling romantic.

“This will be my third name tattoo, am I insane? I’m insane.”

Olivia’s admission that she’s feeling “romantic” had many fans wondering whether the ink is a nod to her new man Pete Wicks.

“Pete maybe?” commented one Instagram user under Olivia’s post.

Another asked: “Does it mean Pete in English?”

But with Olivia providing no context as to what or who Savano is, others kept guessing in the comments.

“It’s guna be a puppy I can feel it babes,” predicted a fan.

Olivia already has pups Lola and Stitch, who she is thought to be sharing custody of with Bradley.

She previously teased the tattoo was about a romantic partner, writing to Instagram that she would be getting a telling off from her mum.

Olivia said: “My mum is about to draggggg me to hell guys I’m scared”.

The Sun exclusively revealed that Olivia was dating long-time pal Pete earlier this year, following her split from Bradley.

Since then, the pair have enjoyed several dates and even a cosy getaway together, with the romance seemingly going strong.
