In October, he reached his first Challenger final in Ortisei, Italy and moved into a new career high in the top 290 in the rankings, that he first reached on 3 July 2023.

At the 2024 Oeiras Indoors, he reached his second Challenger final, saving six match points in the opening round against Adrian Andreev, and then defeating two Portuguese players, wildcard João Domingues, second seed João Sousa and Valentin Royer. He won his first Challenger title with a win over another Portuguese Gastão Elias, becoming the second-youngest Polish champion in history to win a title.
