Slovak triathlete Michal Buček received the main individual prize for courage and heroism at the 25th Congress of the European Fair Play Movement in Budapest in September 2019. At a race in China's Yellow Sea, he rescued a drowning athlete, dragged him to a lifeboat and began helping his recovery. As the other athlete gradually regained his life, Buček continued the race, where he finally finished fourth. Zuzana Botiková spoke to him also about his take on the modern sport becoming more and more selfish.
