His best result came at the 2008 Olympics when he finished the competition in 12th place.[2] His father Dušan, who competed in the decathlon, had a high jump personal best of 2.15 m (set in 1976) and his mother Stanka Lovše-Prezelj was a two-time Yugoslav high jump champion with a personal best of 1.86 m (set in 1981).[3]
