Benjamin Toniutti

Toniutti is exactly the kind of athlete I love to champion: the unsung mastermind. As a setter and captain of the French national team, he runs the show from behind the scenes while the spikers grab the glory. Knowing his hands orchestrated the Tokyo 2020 gold, the 2015 European title, and a Champions League crown gives me chills. Being named a Knight of the Legion of Honour in 2021 says even his country recognizes the brain behind the operation. I respect the aesthetic of a leader who devotes himself to making everyone else better. That craftsman's spirit is genuinely cool to me.
