The former head of the Israeli team, Andreas Herzog, spoke with the “messenger” about the escape campaign of mental coach Markus Rogan, who traveled to Los Angeles despite a positive corona test.
When the news came that Israel’s mental trainer Markus Rogan had made the flight from Israel to Los Angeles despite a positive Covid test result, the outcry was huge. The current head of the Israel team, Willi Ruttensteiner, was disappointed and clearly criticized the former swimming star.
Now Ruttensteiner’s predecessor Andreas Herzog also talks to “Kurier” about the cause. He tries to understand the situation from a distance: “I find it a bit difficult to judge what has happened there. It seems like an escape from where he acted out of emotion and not thought.”
Spectacular escape from Israel
After Israel’s 2-1 loss to the Czech Republic, Rogan had passed a positive corona test and should have passed the mandatory quarantine. The next day he could not be found at the team hotel and is said to have rebooked his flight to Los Angeles. At the airport he also presented negative test.

Andreas Herzog is having a bad time because on the one hand it is understandable “that you want to go with your family as quickly as possible”, on the other hand it is also irresponsible “if you put other people in danger”.
But he doesn’t want to speak ill of his former colleague, with whom he has otherwise only had positive collaborative experiences: “That was extremely professional, Markus is extremely intelligent. He has a strong personality with rough edges. Like I said, the action seems panicky from the distance “.
