MANILA, Philippines — After winning two gold medals at the just concluded Paris Olympics, gymnast Carlos Yulo cemented himself as the greatest Filipino Olympian ever.

The 24-year-old Yulo, who ruled the floor exercise and vault competitions in Paris, is far from finished, though, as he looks to achieve more at the Los Angeles Games in 2028.

"We already won a gold medal," said Yulo in a short interview with the media after his arrival at the Villamor Air Base together with the other Filipino Olympians from Paris Tuesday evening, August 13.

"Of course, I will compete in the 2028 Olympics. I will prepare and practice really well for it. [But for now], I'm going to rest, I need it too."

Yulo and company quickly departed from Villamor to the Malacañang Palace where they met President Bongbong Marcos, getting feted and receiving incentives.

Then, Yulo and fellow Olympians went to the Newport World Resorts for a victory party, celebrating his double gold and the Philippines highest Olympic finish of a 2-gold, 2-bronze medal haul.
