At noon on Friday (24/10) o Lefteris Petrounias took fifth place in the World Championship of Jakarta, with the “King of Hoops” still in the elite of the competition at the age of 35!
His wife sent her own touching message to the Greek Olympic champion, Vasiliki Millousi, who publicly expressed her pride and admiration for Petrounias, declaring how happy he is to inspire the new generation of athletes!
Her message in detail:
“For you who try every day to become a better person, who help as many as you can, who do everything in your power to always be there, a great example of faith, dedication, focus, discipline.
For you who, in your name and on your own dreams, made children hope and dream that they too can!
For you, whose bar is always high and the dream of most high-level athletes, entering the final of a world championship seems a given.
For all this and so much more, I feel immense pride!
We thank you
we love you
Vasiliki, Sofia, Lenia”
