PrintFormer top 20 ATP tennis pro Ronald Agenor represented Haiti during his playing career. When I heard about all the devastation in Haiti, I thought of Agenor and if he was in Haiti or not.
He did so much for Haiti when he was playing and I read that he continues to run a tennis academy, and he helps train players in the Caribbean.
He posted this message on his Facebook to let all his fans know he's ok.
Ronald Agenor I am currently in Guadeloupe, in the Caribbean, and I want to thank all the people from this French Island that are doing all they can to send food, water, blankets, doctors, funds and more. Truly an amazing. It is painful to watch so much devastation in Haiti. My prayers to all the families in pain.
Note: Agenor was quite a flashy player during his career. I saw him play on many occasions and rooted for the guy. I'm sure he will do what he can, as will we and help out Haitian friends.
