The quartet Liemarvin Bonevacia, Terrence Agard, Tony van Diepen and Ramsey Angela won a silver medal after the final 4×400 meters men in the Olympic Stadium a couple of weeks ago.

After an outstanding performance at the Tokyo Olympics, it was definitely a must to interview the 31-year-old sprinter, Terrence Agard.

Hainley Statia is not an unknown name in the baseball industry. The 35-year-old baseball player is a former minor league player and has gained meaningful experiences as a minor league coach in the Milwaukee Brewers organization and infield coordinator for the Los Angeles Angels.

Liemarvin Bonevacia is an example of determination. The 32-year-old sprinter who was born and raised in Curaçao walked a long road to success. What started as a hobby became his passion and turned into a successful journey. His first international competition as an athlete was at the age of 22 at the Olympics in London.

Hensley Meulens, also known as ‘BamBam’, is the first baseball player from Curaçao to play in Major League Baseball. At the age of 18, he started his international career and has gained the admiration and respect of Curaçao ever since. For 10 years he was the batting coach of San Francisco Giants and won three World Series championships with his team. Definitely a milestone! We had an enjoyable interview with Hensley

The shooting sports are not as popular as baseball or football, but it is important to realize that our little island definitely has the potential to create more professional athletes in this sport.
