Sometimes even the most beautiful stories have to end… and give rise to a new one.
This wasn’t an easy decision for me, but I have decided to take a pause in competing and spend more time with my family. Being an IGL was always a great job, but being a dad and a husband is also very important to me, and this is where I want to focus more in the future.
Throughout my journey as part of the “Turkish Six,” I gave everything I had to bring my team and my people to the top, and I have nothing to regret. It was a beautiful chapter in our lives. We shared great moments, faced difficult days, worked hard, and went through so much together.
After this beautiful journey and all these years of competition, I feel the time has come to dedicate myself more fully to my children and the people closest to me. But I will remain with Aurora, and I have some good surprises to share with you in the coming days.
During this journey, we always felt that we had the ongoing support of the 6th player - our fans. And I want to thank all of you for being with us even in the hardest moments. Because of you, we never felt alone and always had the strength to continue climbing to the top.
Special thanks to all my teammates during this grind period of life. We’ve faced so many things together, both bad and good, but all of you always acted with respect and did your best to reach our common goal - bring TRCS to the top. Thank you all for that.
I also want to thank Erenay, Bekir, and Berker. Sometimes they had to deal with all our stress, emotions, and little mood swings. They were the heroes in the shadows of this story.
A special thank you to Aurora as well. This is a remarkable organization. Thank you to Adalet, the CEO of Aurora, who did everything from day one to make us feel at home.
And of course, Cenk… the hidden hero of this adventure. Always there for me, always there for us. He tried to solve every problem in the world, motivated us when we needed it, and never left us alone. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Don’t worry, I’ll still be around. I love you all.
