Donald Trump, the president-elect, has turned to a previous school tennis player to carry out his financial objectives. He is a passionate golfer with a base of mixed martial arts supporters.
On Tuesday, Trump announced the election of Howard Lutnick, the businessman CEO of Cantor Fitzgerald, to serve as his Commerce Department minister.
Lutnick, 63, was a collegiate tennis player at Division III Haverford College and received an award in 2017 honoring him as a” shining instance of a student-athlete taking the equipment and knowledge he gained on the judge… and applying them throughout a distinguished specialist job.”
At Haverford, Lutnick played under the university’s legendary head manager Marty Gilbert, who was known to have been instrumental in bringing the game of golf to Israel. According to Haverford’s athletic department site, Lutnick finished his freshman season with a 7-4 history before graduating in 1983.
Lutnick was the primary financial donation behind the Haverford’s 100, 000-square-foot sport centre, which opened in 2005 and was named in honor of Douglas B. Gardner, a Cantor Fitzgerald executive who was one of the thousands of the fund’s workers, including Lutnick’s nephew Gary, who died in the Sept. 11 criminal attacks. ( Cantor’s offices were located in the upper floors of the World Trade Center’s north tower. )
Haverford’s new tennis facility, named after his brother, was funded by Lutnick in 2008.
Currently, Lutnick serves as co-chair of Trump’s White House transition team. The other co-chair is Linda McMahon, the former president and CEO of World Wrestling Entertainment, who herself had been in the running to lead Commerce.
