Stefanos Doukos was crowned world champion in Shanghai, winning the gold medal with a shocking race that brought him to the top of the world.
Behind the enormous success of the 28 -year -old rowing, however, lies the constant support of his partner, Evangelia Anastasiadou, who spoke with emotion about the triumph, after her own 6th place with Zoe Fitsiou in the final of the double skip of the world.
“Only shocking moments? Incredible! What people see, because Stefanos won a gold medal and can be high, is not the case. Competition is too big, athletes are very good“, Anastasiadou told ERT, wanting to emphasize the difficulty of the venture.
She revealed that even Duskos has not realized the magnitude of his success: “I don’t know how it does. Nor has he realized what he has achieved. We have been in this process for many years. Stefanos is 11 years in space, missing all the time. It deserves 50 gold global”
Stefanos Doukos has previously referred to his acquaintance with Evangelia Anastasiadou, stressing that it was when she was even smaller and had joined the national team, resulting in gradually coming closer. For her part, Anastasiadou had noted that, although Duskos was already an sixth Olympian at that time, this fact had not played any role in the course of their relationship.
