Urszula "Ula" Radwańska [urˈʂula radˈvaɲska] (born 7 December 1990) is a Polish professional tennis player.
Radwańska has won one doubles title on the WTA tour, as well as four singles and ten doubles titles on the ITF tour in her career. On 8 October 2012, she reached her best singles ranking of world number 29. On 21 September 2009, she peaked at world number 74 in the doubles rankings.
She is the younger sister of Agnieszka Radwańska.
As a junior player, Radwańska won Grand Slam titles, including the 2007 Wimbledon girls' singles, culminating in the junior year-ending world No. 1 ranking. This was the launching pad into her professional career, where she has been getting into WTA main draws via qualifying and wildcards.
In 2007, Radwańska played in the main draw of three WTA tour tournaments. She lost in the first round of the Tier II J&S Cup in Warsaw, the second round of the Tier III Japan Open Tennis Championships in Tokyo, and the quarterfinals of the Tier III PTT Bangkok Open after defeating fourth-seeded Virginie Razzano in the third round. Urszula and Agnieszka won a doubles title together at the 2007 İstanbul Cup.
At the 2008 Wimbledon Championships, Radwańska made her Grand Slam singles debut, losing in the second round to two-time champion Serena Williams 6–4, 6–4. Having seen the fight she put up in this match, the commentator Andrew Castle observed, "She is sound in just about all areas, and she knows what to do with the ball, she seems to have an understanding, a little like Martina Hingis."
