Athlete Comments & Reviews
“It’s not only about winning”
“I like competitive activities, I don’t have to win all the time. My wife is the same.”
“So exciting to experience other countries and cultures”
“I think the most part is the cultures of the countries you come to visit, and experiencing the people.”
“I do many sports so I can choose what my body is capable of”
“You have to keep moving, I had a new start after my new hips at 60-61 so I’ve got another 15 years at least hopefully. Luckily I do a lot of sailing as well, and swimming. So there are other sports if I can’t play tennis any longer but I love to keep going for as long as possible.”
