Other Information
Aggelos Venizelos was born on October 27th, 1992. He is the second son of Panos and Eva Venizelou and has an older brother, Rocco, who is his senior by 9 years.
He started playing tennis before he turned 5 at the Chalkida Tennis Club, which is in the city of Chalkida, the permanent residence of his family.
His first coaches were Katerina Lymberopoulos, Vasilis Roubis and Bobby Papaioannou and his physical trainer was Nikos Moraitis.
His last coach before he left Greece was Yiannis Kabakoglou, who coached him for approximately 5 months at the Padalki Club in Galatsi, Athens.
In the summer of 2004, just after he finished primary school, at the age of 11, he accepted the invitation of Mr. Xavier Torner, director of the Top Team Bruguera Tennis Academy in Barcelona and since then he has lived and trained there.
Aggelos is considered exceptionally talented for his age, with excellent technique, but also with a very capricious discipline and a very unstable and unforeseeable attitude in competitions. As of June, 2006, Aggelos has passed all his exams and completed the school year- 8th grade- successfully.
