"First of all, I am very happy to be able to compete in tournaments in the current situation," Duszak said.

"In the singles category I had no problems in any match, and I managed to win without losing a set. 

"In the doubles category, together with Bartlomiej Franczuk, we made a lot of mistakes in key moments, but we won 2-1 in the final.

"We know that there is a lot of work ahead of us, so we will focus on training hard for the next tournaments."

Kaminski finally achieved a gold medal to add to his two silvers in the mixed doubles, pairing with Ewa Krol to overcome Franczuk and Alicja Bartnicka 12-8, 12-6. 

Elsewhere, Guinea-Bissau hosted Africa’s first National Challenger Series event, featuring 16 singles players and eight doubles teams.

Lino Bluté impressed to win both the singles and the doubles contests. 

In the singles, he defeated Carimo Indjai 12-8, 12-7, whilst Queba Indjai picked up the bronze. 

Bluté partnered with Queba Indjai in the doubles, getting past Carimo Indjai and partner Leonel U Biai 12-11, 12-11 in an entertaining final.
