00:26History and fame, that's what the Filipino gymnast Carlos Edriel Yulo achieved after winning two gold medals for the Philippines in the 2024 Paris Olympics
00:41Yulo won his first pet event floor exercise on Saturday where he scored 15.00 points so that he could win his gold medal in the Olympics
00:55In the overall score of 15.116, the performance of the 24-year-old gymnast in the vault finals this week was also impressive
01:06so that he could win his second gold medal
01:10Because of these victories, Yulo was the first Filipino athlete to win a double gold medal in the 100-year history of the country in the Olympics
01:21It was an amazing experience. I'm so thankful to God.
01:25I'm grateful and blessed. He gave me people who truly supported me and trusted me.
01:32I'm completely grateful. I can't do this alone.
01:37However, before becoming a two-time Olympic gold medalist, Yulo's career began in a bad way.
01:45He first participated in gymnastics for seven years after his grandfather Rodrigo Frisco brought him to the Rizal Memorial Sports Complex in Malate, Manila.
01:55Because of him, Yulo was able to compete in the national games where he showed his skills and won many medals.
02:06From playing, Yulo went to the national team in 2014, where he became the judge of several awards for the Philippines.
02:16In his 10-year career as a national team gymnast, he has won 6 medals in the World Championships, 15 in the World Cup, 13 in the Asian Championships, and 18 in the Southeast Asian Games.
02:32This year, Yulo's collection is now complete because he used the medal he has been waiting for for a long time.
02:39Not just one, but two medals from the Olympics.
02:44Aside from his dream, Yulo also made the country proud in the highest honor in the field of strength.
02:52This is the flag that we are proud of in the Olympics, which symbolizes the excellence of Filipino athletes.
