Julian Wilson (born November 8, 1988) is an Australian professional surfer who competes on the Association of Surfing Professionals Men's World Tour. == Personal life == Wilson was born and raised in Coolum Beach, Queensland. He is an ambassador for the National Breast Cancer Foundation.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=About Julian Wilson )〕 Wilson's mother is a breast cancer survivor, and he was inspired to ride a pink board by close family friend and international cricketer Matt Hayden, who plays with a pink bat for the same cause. Wilson was in the water during the final of the J-Bay Open 2015 in South Africa when three-time world champion Mick Fanning was attacked by a great white shark. He paddled towards Fanning to assist, was praised for his action and subsequently hailed as a hero.〔http://m.smh.com.au/nsw/surfer-julian-wilson-hailed-as-hero-after-shark-attacks-mick-fanning-20150720-gifzr8.html〕 The event was cancelled. Both surfers escaped unharmed and were given a shared victory. Following the ordeal, Wilson gave a tear-filled interview, and when asked "You guys are locked in a title battle right now, and to put things into perspective does that mean anything to you at this point in time?" he replied "No, not at all, I'm just happy he's alive."〔http://m.sunshinecoastdaily.com.au/news/julian-wilson-races-help-fanning-during-shark-atta/2711340/〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Julian Wilson (surfer)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
