00:00Anton, what other sports do you think we have to watch out for in the 2028 LA Olympics?

00:18Aside from our usual sports like gymnastics, boxing, weightlifting, pole vaulting.

00:32Right now, I think the first thing that pops into mind is fencing, Sam Katantan.

00:40I think she's one of the youngest Olympians in the delegation, only 22 years old.

00:46Unfortunately, she did announce that she re-tore her ACL on her knee.

00:52So that's another period of recovery, but she has youth on her side.

00:58I'm sorry to cut you off. I will just give an update to our viewers who are watching this live stream.

01:04Our athletes are now boarding the shuttle.

01:11And now, they will leave the Villamor Air Base and go to Malacanang Palace

01:21where they will be personally welcomed by President Bongbong Marcos and First Lady Liz Araneta Marcos

01:29along with other First Family members.

01:34The shuttle will leave any time now.

01:41And based on the update given to us by our colleague, Ivan Mayrina, who is currently in Malacanang,

01:50it will take around 20 minutes for our athletes to get to the palace.

02:04And just like the update given to us earlier,

02:24when they reach Malacanang Palace, they will be personally welcomed by the President and First Lady.

02:32There will also be an awarding ceremony where our athletes will be given a Presidential Citation.

02:43And aside from that, our Double Gold Medalist, Carlos Yulo, will also receive a Presidential Medal of Merit.

02:53The shuttle where the athletes will be boarding has now left the Villamor Air Base.
