Maybe because in Poland the athletics "market" is less saturated and they could earn more money from sponsorship if they do well? (I mean, France and Germany have dozens of great athletes fighting over sponsors and funding). It also doesn't seem like a bad country to live in at all.

The same is true for Netherlands or Switzerland and there is more money in those countries + those countries are clearly better places to live + you get much better along with english there + you probably face people with a more welcoming nature. In the end this is a ridiculous discussion, we wouldnt lead it if Poland was the country competing with "foreign" athletes, then everything would be fine and we would be told that all of those athletes only compete for Poland because they love the country so much.
