Es hexacampeona paralímpica de tenis de mesa. El 13 de agosto de 2008, en el Gimnasio de la Universidad de Beijing, sucumbió ante la hongkonesa Tie Ya Na y, como integrante del equipo femenino polaco, se transformó en la <b>primera tenimesista en competir tanto en los Juegos Olímpicos como en los Paralímpicos de una misma edición</b>. Repetiría en Londres, Río y Tokio.</p><p>Partyka no se impondría como la única en su disciplina en abrazar la dualidad: la australiana <b>Melissa Tapper</b> la emularía en Río 2016 y Tokio 2020. Tampoco como la única atleta: desde la italiana <b>Paola Fantato</b>, en tiro con arco en Atlanta ‘96, serían <b>seis</b> los repetidores. Cinco mujeres y Oscar Pistorius.</p><p>Seis hasta París 2024, Juego en que la brasileña Bruna Costa Alexandre, tercera en el ranking paralímpico mundial, estirará la estela de la polaca multicampeona (a quien describió como una fuente de inspiración) y de Tapper. A los 29 años, se inscribirá en el séptimo renglón del prontuario. <b>Competirá en las dos fiestas polideportivas</b> en el Arena Sud 4 entre julio y septiembre.</p><blockquote class="instagram-media" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink="https://www.instagram.com/p/C7zejhux8ZD/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading" data-instgrm-version="14" style=" background:#FFF;
