He is a member of the Gord sports club based in Velika Gorica and was named Velika Gorica Sportsman of the Year in 2011.[6] After narrowly missing 2004 Olympic Games in Athens and 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing, Cernogoraz managed to qualify for 2012 Olympic Games after winning the ISSF World Cup in Beijing in 2011.[7]
