Duszak regains top spot in FITEQ singles world ranking Thursday, 7 January 2021
Poland’s Adrian Duszak returned to the top of the International Federation of Teqball (FITEQ) singles world ranking.
Duszak overtook Hungary s three-time world champion Ádám Blázsovics in the rankings after playing in a number of events last month.
Victories came at the Polish National Challenger Series, where Duszak qualified for the 2021 Teqball World Championships, and the FITEQ Challenger Cup in Brazil.
He now has 16856 world ranking points, while Blázsovics, who had taken the top spot in November, has 15010.
There was little change in the rest of the top 10 apart from Duszak’s compatriot Patryk Kaminski’s rise from 12th to ninth.
