Who Is Anna Szczerek?
Anna Szczerek, also known as Anna Mocna-Szczerek, is a Polish entrepreneur and philanthropist who co-founded the landscaping and paving company Drogbruk alongside her husband, Piotr Szczerek, in 1999.
Beyond her business acumen, she is actively involved in supporting arts and education initiatives in Poland. Unlike her husband, who recently faced public scrutiny, Anna has maintained a low profile, focusing on her family and philanthropic efforts.
“People know we’re happy to help, not just in sports. Because if our business success gives us the opportunity, why not? It’s our inner need, but also a sincere belief in social responsibility in business, which we put into practice every day.” — Anna Szczerek in an interview with Tenis Magazyn
Her Role in the US Open Incident
During the US Open, Piotr Szczerek was filmed grabbing a signed cap intended for a young fan and placing it into Anna’s bag. While she was seen smiling and focused on her phone during the incident, she has not publicly commented on the matter. However, a fabricated statement attributed to her defending the action went viral, which she later denied.
“You poor people, you shouldn’t really have access to the Internet – you can’t use this tool correctly…” — Fabricated statement falsely attributed to Anna Szczerek
