After 2014 competition, he ranked 22nd among Grand Masters by World Bridge Federation (WBF) masterpoints, five places behind his longtime partner Cezary Balicki. They ranked 26–27th among more than 100 all-time Grand Masters by placing points that do not decay over time.

With his regular partner, Cezary Balicki, won the bronze medal at the World Open Pairs held in Geneva in 1990.
On 26 September 2015, the World Bridge Federation Credentials Committee announced that the invitation extended to Balicki and Żmudziński to play in the 2015 Bermuda Bowl in Chennai, India had been withdrawn, one day before play was due to start. No reason was given.[1]
On 22 June 2017, the Disciplinary Department of the Polish Bridge Federation (PZBS) recognised as an indisputable fact that Balicki and Żmudziński engaged in illegal transmission of information during the European Bridge League Championship in Opatija in 2014. The disciplinary department did not impose any penalties due to the expiry of the limitation period.[2]
