Cerovic competed only in the men's 200 m backstroke at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, as a member of the former Yugoslav squad. He posted a FINA B-standard entry time of 2:07.03 from the U.S. National Championships in Federal Way, Washington.[3] He challenged five other swimmers in heat one, including Hong Kong's Alex Fong, who later became one of city's most popular singers. He fought off a challenge from Kyrgyzstan's Aleksandr Yegorov to earn a fifth spot in 2:09.07. Cerovic failed to advance into the semifinals, as he placed forty-third overall in the prelims.[4] [5]

A graduate of hotel management from St. Johns University with a Master's degree in hotel management from the University Nevada Las Vegas, Cerovic currently works as a resident manager for Shangri-La. He also served as a "residential service lead" for the athletes' village when London hosted the 2012 Summer Olympics.[6] Cerovic is fluent in English and Serbian.[7]
