00:00The Philippines crowned Carlos Yulo's historic victory in the 2024 Paris Olympics.

00:09His outstanding routine made him the winner of the Men's Floor Exercise and Vault Event of the Gymnastics Competition.

00:16His back-to-back gold medal was the first in a century of our participation in the Olympics.

00:23So, aside from the greetings, he also poured his guts.

00:28What is Kaloy's plan now that the competition is over?

00:31Watch this! This is J.P. Soriano.

00:34From the take-off, jump, and circling in the air to the landing,

00:40Carlos Yulo's performance was superb.

00:43His level of difficulty was well-executed even though it was high.

00:46That's why he was awarded 15.433 points.

00:51He also scored 14.8 points in his second vault performance.

00:56That's why Yulo's average total score was 15.116.

01:01It was enough to make him fly in the Men's Vault Finals in the 2024 Paris Olympics.

01:07It was a new turning point in Yulo's history as the first two-time Olympic gold medalist of the Philippines.

01:14Just this Saturday, his floor exercise was counted as well.

01:20Within 24 hours, the Philippines raised its flag twice and sang the national anthem.

01:27According to Yulo, he did not expect this, especially his opponent,

01:33the Tokyo Olympics bronze medalist from Armenia, who won the Silver Cements Vault event.

01:39His first vault was a full blast.

01:42The second was just medium.

01:47Then, we did some exercises before going in.

01:51We did handstands for handsprings.

01:54From France to the Philippines, Yulo's victory was full of congratulations.

02:02He deserved it.

02:04He really worked hard.

02:11I want him to get it.

02:13I'm very proud of you.

02:14Congrats Kuya. We're very proud of you.

02:17Yulo also received a lot of money, including a million-peso cash, a fully furnished condo unit, and a house and lot.

02:26There were also resolutions in the Senate and the House of Representatives to introduce Yulo.

02:30The Manila government is preparing a Heroes Parade.

02:34Carlos Yulo's victory was a dream he had since he was a child and was the first target in the Tokyo Olympics.

02:42When I was in Tokyo, I was still young and I didn't have much experience in big competitions.

02:54Now, I'm more confident. I will give my all and my performance with all my heart.

03:03But Yulo jumped a few steps before he received the medal as a farewell to his former Japanese coach.

03:10He was the one who saw my potential.

03:13I'm very thankful to him, to my coach.

03:20He was very smart when it came to gymnastics and sports.

03:25He provided all the needs when I was in Japan.

03:32Coach Lesman was invited to a gym in Korea for the Tokyo 2020 Olympics.

03:38He was also welcomed by the British Gymnastics Center.

03:42He was accompanied by Phil Britt, Jake Jarman.

03:46That's why they became friends when Jarman won gold and bronze at the floor exercise event.

03:54Before joining the Paris Olympics, Yulo trained every day at the Gym of the Gymnastics Association of the Philippines.

04:01At this gym, GMA Integrated News got to know Carlos' teammates.

04:06One of them is Juancho Miguel Besana, who was mentioned by Yulo on olympics.com,

04:11who helped him with his well-being.

04:13He was an inspiration for others like him, Yulo.

04:17As an athlete, he's the benchmark.

04:21When we see him in training, we follow him.

04:25When we see him, he works hard.

04:29That's why we want to give him a good training.

04:33He's very supportive.

04:36He's very humble.

04:40He never forgets his teammates.

04:49He's very disciplined in everything.

04:53From eating, I've never seen him as an athlete.

04:58For me, we're teammates.

05:02We're opponents in competitions, but we're teammates.

05:10When he was young, Yulo saw the potential to become a champion.

05:14Even in his younger years, around 8 years old, he's very hardworking in training.

05:20He's always focused. He never complains.

05:25Even when he's injured, he never excuses himself in training.

05:31It's not a joke that Yulo had to overcome a lot of obstacles

05:34before becoming a back-to-back Olympic gold medalist.

05:38He's very thankful for the support he received,

05:42especially from his wife, Chloe.

05:47He's always there for me, for my support.

05:52I'm thankful to God that he gave him to me.

05:56He gives me a lot of motivation and support.

06:00I love him very much.

06:06Carlos' father is also in spirit.

06:09Not only does he watch his fights on television,

06:12but he also shows his pride before the fights.

06:16I love him very much.

06:18He gives me a lot of support.

06:22I don't know what to say.

06:25Thank you for your support. I love you very much.

06:29Right now, Carlos has another target.

06:35But before the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics,

06:38he'll enjoy a well-deserved rest.

06:42I'm from Disneyland.

06:47From here in Paris, France,
