It's nice to have friends—or social media followers—in high places, as Polish tennis players Magda Linette and Magdalena Frech learned on the eve of the Paris Olympics. After contesting the first-ever all-Polish WTA singles final in Open Era at the Livesport Prague Open on Friday (won by Linette, 6-2, 6-1), the two Olympic teammates almost found themselves with no place to go (and no way to get to Paris) as a consequence of the closure of French airspace within 150 kilometers of Paris for the security of the Opening Ceremony, which was set to kick off hours later.
