General Interest

HEARING IMPAIRMENT
Has a hearing impairment after contracting meningitis at age three, losing 99% of hearing in his right ear and 80% in his left ear. Uses lip-reading and normal speaking in Czech and English to communicate with his coach and teammates. “I think that most athletes don't know I am hard of hearing, except my teammates. Of course, some bobsledders from other countries know that, and they are absolutely fine, no problem. I feel like I have no handicap. However, my teammates often do some hard jokes about hearing, but that's ordinary.” (ctidoma.cz, 20 Oct 2017; ciss.org)

Made his Olympic Winter Games debut at PyeongChang 2018 (17th in two-man, fourth in four-man).

2016 Junior World Championships four-man bronze medallist, plus two other top-10 finishes (eighth in two-man in 2016, sixth in four-man in 2015).

Six top-10 finishes at the European Championships, his best being sixth in the four-man in 2020 (Winterberg).
