FATHER AND COACH
He says it is often challenging having his father Jiri as his coach. "It is demanding. In small sports, it is common for a father to train his child. Dad and I are both stubborn, it's hard to agree. Sometimes it's even mental training for both of us to do it, but as a single coach he's definitely one of the best in the world." He has also worked with a mental coach. "It probably helped me the most that I admitted that I had a problem with my psyche and that I should work on myself in this area." (sport.cz, 27 Jul 2020; padler.cz, 07 May 2021)

FUTURE PLANS
He has studied towards a master's degree in media. He has commentated on national Czech television and done social media work. "My biggest goal after my sporting career is to work in sports journalism, I really enjoy sports and keep an eye on news of current events in the world. My dream job has always been a sports commentator. Now I want to paddle for a few more years but I hope I will have the opportunity to do this job." (sport.cz, 27 Jul 2020; padler.cz, 07 May 2021)
