Frederik Lauesen Explained

Frederik Lauesen (born 10 November 1972) is a Danish TV presenter, who has been head of sport for the Danish channel TV 2 since September 2008.[1]

Career

He is well known in Denmark and France for presenting the sports news, including presenting of the Danish coverage of the Tour de France.[2] He worked on TV 2 Sport from 1998, presenting the magazine show LPS,[1] before becoming editorial director of the news department for a year.[3] He was criticised by a women's handball team, FC Midtjylland, in December 2009 after he called the women's game unexciting.[4] [5]

No big screen events for the 2024 European Championship

Frederik Lauesen demands no big screen events outside at bars and cafes during this summer's European Championships in football. On 21-05-2024, Frederik stated to EkstraBladet - "I was born to run a business. We do not want to give away what we have bought in expensive judgments. When we have bought a share in EC in football, then it is because we believe that we can make a good business out of it, says sports director Frederik Lauesen from TV 2 to the newspaper."[6], and it is assumed by many decent people that this decision is Frederik Lauesen's own resignation.

Personal life

He grew up in Kolding. He lives in Odense with his two children.[7] He met his Greenland-born[8] wife Laila Sylvester Grossmann in 2000,[9] and they married in 2006.[10] She died in November 2007 aged 39 from a heart attack.[11] Lauesen and his family received over one million krone in compensation for her death after making a complaint about the three doctors who treated her.[12]
