This Greek guy, Gkolomeev, I remember him from European champs in Belgrade.Seems like his got no parents,his father died in 2010 and mother when he was younger,and few days ago lost his college teammate John Servati.Born in 1993 already split 18.9 in 50y free.I’d put my money on him for the future,takes alot of bals to go thrue what he’s been.Respect.
slow heat.
