Team Poland is headed by Olympic hammer throw champion Wojciech Nowicki and five-time world champion Paweł Fajdek.
Other standout entrants include race walkers Dawid Tomala and Katarzyna Zdziebło, 400m runner Natalia Kaczmarek, 1500m runner Sofia Ennaoui, and sprinter Ewa Swoboda.
Some other Polish names to watch during the championships include Damian Czykier in the men's 110 hurdles, Pia Skrzyszowska in the women's 100 hurdles, Piotr Lisek in the men's pole vault, and Konrad Bukowiecki and Michał Haratyk in the shot put.
Fans will also be keeping an eye on Krystsina Tsimanouskaya, a 26-year-old Belarus-born sprinter who was this month cleared to race for Poland.
Meanwhile, Adrianna Sułek, who won the silver in the women’s pentathlon at last year's World Athletics Indoor Championships in Belgrade, Serbia, was not selected to compete in Budapest after she announced she was expecting her first child, public broadcaster Polish Radio’s IAR news agency reported.
The 2023 World Athletics Championships will be held in Budapest from August 19 to 27.
More than 2,100 athletes from 202 teams are expected to compete at Hungary's new National Athletics Centre.
