PARTNER
He competes in C2 with Jan Batik. The pair competed individually before coach Juraj Ondko suggested they should team up. "When you compete alone, you are solely responsible for yourself. With two it is more complicated because you need to complement each other. We are friends but there are also difficult moments," Kucera said. (pravda.sk, 24 Jun 2015)
