[An unpublished testimony at the microphone of Jacques Vendroux for Europe 1] For years, because he was in Sport-Etudes in France, Yannick Noah lived far from his family, especially his mother Marie-Claire. After his victory at Roland-Garros and now an adult, Yannick Noah understands that she has given him the most beautiful gift: that of letting him fly on his own wings to be able to fulfill his dream. Over the years, it is still she, Marie-Claire, who works to develop the village of Etoudi and who helps Yannick Noah to give meaning to its notoriety. Having become an international star, Yannick Noah says it bluntly: he has the impression of "prostituting" himself when he surfs on his celebrity. To use his success now for a good cause, his mother makes him enter the field of humanitarianism, and offers him to set up with her an associative project now known as "The children of the earth"...
