About
Javier Hernández is a former Olympic sailor who competed in sailing for Spain at the 2008 Beijing and 2012 London Olympic Games. He retired from professional sailing due to a lack of funding. Currently, Hernández runs a lottery administration in Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Spain. He is newsworthy because his lottery administration recently distributed the top prize in the El Niño lottery. The news article highlights his transition from Olympic athlete to lottery administrator, noting his statement that he "couldn't keep living off sailing." Another individual named Javier Hernández is mentioned in a separate article, but this is not the same person. That Javier Hernández is associated with a news article about Arnaldo Otegi, who received death threats.
