Pyszková is Czech Republic’s second Miss World, after Taťána Kuchařová earlier won the title in 2006
Czech Republic’s Krystyna Pyszková is the 71st Miss World, besting 111 other contestants from around the world during the pageant’s finals night on Saturday, March 9, in Mumbai, India.
She replaced outgoing titleholder Karolina Bielawska of Poland. Born in Třinec, Pyszková is Czech Republic’s second Miss World, after Taťána Kuchařová earlier won the title in 2006.
The new Miss World titleholder is also the third winner of a “Big 4” pageant crown for the Czech Republic. In 2012, the European country bagged the Miss Earth crown courtesy of Tereza Fajksová.
Miss World is part of the elite “Big 4” pageants in the world, along with Miss Universe, Miss International, and Miss Earth.
In the last years, Miss World had delays in staging its pageant. After the 2019 pageant was held in the United Kingdom, it took three years before the pageant was held again in 2022, due to COVID-19 restrictions.
The 71st edition was supposed to be held in December 2023 but was later moved to March this year.
