Vuk Rađenović
Vuk Radjenovic (Serbian Cyrillic: Вук Рађеновић, born 7 June 1983 in Ključ, Bosnia and Herzegovina) is a Germany-resident Serbian bobsledder who has competed since 2001. His best World Cup finish was 11th in a four-men event at Igls in 2013, considered a remarkable performance due to financial struggles of his national federation. Vuk and the Serbian Bobsleigh Team became known as people that "create a lot with nothing". His best two-man World Cup result is 18th in Igls in 2012.[1] Rađenović finished 2012/13 World Cup season in 26th place of Men's Four-Man with 352 . He was selected to compete at the 2010 Winter Olympics in the four-man event where he finished 18th.[2] His best world cup results are 2010: 2man in Lake Placid, NY, USA, 16th place; and 2012: 2man in St Moritz Switzerland, 18th place.
