Grzybowska, born in Poznań, won the juniors singles competition at one Grand Slam tournament, the 1996 Australian Open.

She also competed for Poland in the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta, where she lost in the first round.

Since then, until her knee injury in 1998, she managed a rather successful career, culminating in the 30th position in the cumulative WTA rankings for that year, the highest ever standing for a Polish woman, until Agnieszka Radwańska.

Her attempts to resume competition were ultimately unsuccessful and she retired in 2002, at the age of 24.

Playing for Poland Fed Cup team, she has a win/loss record of 8–10.

After having retired from tennis, she completed her university studies in Paris, and is working as a tennis TV commentator for Eurosport in Warsaw, Poland.
