Femke Bol opens up about meeting Ben Broeders

She shared how they were very different people; however, they put in great efforts to understand each other, which makes their relationship beautiful. Moreover, as both of them are professional athletes, their support for each other during crucial moments plays a huge role in dealing with the stress and pressure of competing on the global stage.
